Custom Packages
The majority of the packages needed by most organizations have existing package definition files because most major packages now install from MSI files. For those packages that do not have package definition files but do have setup files, the Word Viewer client example illustrates that you can manually create packages by performing some additional steps. You can often install simple applications with a batch file or a script. For more complex applications, work with the vendor to find a supported, documented process for performing an unattended deployment of the application.
