When installing Adobe Live Cycle, in the "PDF Generator ES only" step it asks for user name and password for the user who installed Microsoft Office. This requires a correct administrator name and password. The documentation says "This administrator account name must be the same user who installed Microsoft Office on the system and should include the Windows DOMAIN prefix if that user is nota local account on the target computer".



The question that I have with regards to this is, is this user name and password information used only for the installation purposes? If not what other services use this information?.



It will be of great help if you can get back to me regarding this question.

PDF Generator will use the administrator account name and password that you specify to do MS Office native file conversions to PDF. This is why it is required at installed time. No other LC component uses this information (i.e. only PDF G).
