Setting up Citrix Workspace App
When deploying ABBYY FineReader PDF 15 using Citrix Workspace App, use the Installed application accessed from a server scenario.
To deploy ABBYY FineReader PDF 15:
- Install FineReader on all servers in the Delivery Group of the Citrix farm*.
- Create a Licensing Server and add a suficient number of licenses.
Note. If a user starts ABBYY Hot Folder or another bundled application without starting FineReader, a Concurrent/Remote User license will still be allocated to the user. The above does not apply to ABBYY Screenshot Reader, as it does not need a Concurrent/Remote User license to be launched.
* A farm is several Citrix servers that are grouped together to enable centralized administration, load balancing and fault tolerance.
