Product (required)

The name of the product. This text must be localized.

Version (required)

The version of the product. This text must be localized.

Example:

Version = 4.0a
 

Comment (required)

SetupVariations (required)

A list of the setup variations supported by the package. Each setup variation name corresponds to a PDF key that defines a package command. The recommended name for these keys is [SetupVariation Setup].

WorkstationAccess (recommended)

The access permissions to the packages created with this PDF. You can assign permissions to two user groups: Users and Guests. There are two permissions that you can assign:

Read

Permits users in the group to read and copy files, run programs, change directories within the shared directory, and read extended attributes of files.

To run a program file (that is, one with a .COM, .EXE, or .BAT extension), the user must have Read permission.

Write

Permits users in the group to write the contents and extended attributes of files.

You assign permissions to these groups by using the following entries: UserRead sets Read permission for the Users group, UserWrite sets Write permission for the Users group, GuestRead sets Read permission for the Guests group, and GuestWrite sets Write permission for the Guests group.

The default is for both Users and Guests to have both Read and Write permissions.

Example:

WorkstationAccess = UserRead, UserWrite, GuestRead
