BazookaJoe Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 Hi,I was wondering if anyone's successfully automated the installation of CutePDF and Ghostscript? This appears to be the best free PDF creator option out there (no spyware, popups, etc), but alternate suggestions are always welcome... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbjones Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Well, according to the author, to do a unnatended install you have to purchase his "Custom Edition" for designing a branded distribution or some such craziness for like $300. (like that's going to happen for those of us who just like to play)It would be nice however if anyone has figured out a repackaged version with both Ghost Script 8 and Cute PDF.- Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krose Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 (edited) I use this for the Ghostscript 8.54 msi installer from RunOnceEx:REG ADD %KEY%\077 /VE /D "Ghostscript" /fREG ADD %KEY%\077 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\install\pdfwriter\GPLGhostscript854.msi /quiet /norestart" /fYou can use the /verysilent switch for CutePDF but it wants to connect to the internet after install so I just made a simple cmd file to install it then kill iexplore.exe:cwnd /hide @@echo offFOR %%i IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%i:\win51ip.sp3 SET CDROM=%%i:start /wait %CDROM%\install\pdfwriter\cutewriter.exe /verysilenttaskkill /f /im iexplore.exeexitRun the cmd from RunOnceEx:REG ADD %KEY%\078 /VE /D "Cute PFD Writer" /fREG ADD %KEY%\078 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\install\pdfwriter\cutewriter.cmd" /fA bit tedious but it works.
