sms installation

[jjacobsen61]

My company requires that all applications be advertised on SMS instead of being installed locally. I've been trying to create an MSI file to accomplish this with PrimoPDF, but am having very poor results. Are there any plans for releasing an MSI file for PrimoPDF, or do you have any suggestions how I could successfully create one? I've been using InstallShield, and the MSI image continually turns out corrupted.

Apparently my knowledge is lacking in this area. Can you explain how this works and what aspects are different and I will look into the issue.

From my understanding Installshield is basically an msi wrapper that allows you to wrap the MS installer with scripts and automation. Getting this to work with just an MSI would be very very difficult as there are a lot of custom actions that take place.
