Using Active Directory
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and later includes an integrated directory service, Active Directory, which,
in turn, includes Group Policy. The Software Installation snap–in, which is part of Group Policy, allows you
to install a software application on several workstations simultaneously.
Three major installation methods are implemented in Active Directory:
 Publish to User
 Assign to User
 Assign to Computer
ABBYY FineReader 12 can be installed using the Assign to Computer method.
