2 About this Guide

This guide is intended for business intelligence decision-makers and administrators responsible for installing SAP

BusinessObjects Web Intelligence 4.1 on Windows client machines in corporate environments.

You can install the desktop client interactively (from the SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform

Client Tools media, or from the SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform Java BI launch pad). You can

also install the desktop client silently (using a script or from the command line).

This guide also covers the new features in this version of the desktop client, and important information about

planning, preparing, and performing installations and maintenance tasks.

Note

Although the desktop client is only available on machines running Microsoft Windows operating systems, you

can use it to connect to servers running other operating systems.

For more information about features and capabilities, see the SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform

Web Intelligence User Guide.

3 Planning Installations

3.1 Getting started

3.1.1 Overview of Web Intelligence

You can use SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence to work with secured or unsecured documents, with or

without a connection to a Central Management Server.

The desktop client lets you create documents and edit, format, print, and save them. The following are common

scenarios for using the desktop client:

You do not want to install a CMS or an application server.

You cannot connect to a CMS while traveling or working in a location without network access.

You want to work with documents continuously, if there are server-side interruptions or performance issues.

You want to improve calculation performance.

Tip

Local calculations are typically faster than server calculations.

For more information about features and capabilities, see the SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence User Guide.

3.1.2 Installation types

You can install SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence Rich Client on a local Windows machine. In a small or mid-

range deployment, you can perform one of the following interactive installations:

Installation from the SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform Client Tools media involves running

an installation program.

Installation from the SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform Java BI launch pad involves

downloading and running the installation program.

If you have a large-scale deployment, you can perform one of the following silent installations:

Scripted silent installation involves writing parameters to a response.inifile, and then using the file to run

the installation program.

Command-line silent installation involves passing parameters to the installation program directly.

Note

The online help system is installed on the local computer by default, but you can also install the help files to a

different location and then direct Web Intelligence Rich Client to use those files. For information about how to

make the online help system available after installing it to a custom location, see To specify the folder or URL

for online help [page 22].

3.1.2.1 Integration

Note

Before you install SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence 4.1, you should uninstall any previous versions of the

desktop client.

You can install Web Intelligence side by side with SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform 4.1 and SAP

BusinessObjects Client Tools 4.1.

3.2 Key tasks

3.2.1 Interactive installations

Interactive installations allow you to install and configure SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence on a Windows

client machine using a wizard.

You can run an interactive installation from the SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform Client Tools

media, or from the SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform Java BI launch pad.

Caution

Before you install the desktop client, ensure that your SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform

administrator has provided users with desktop client application rights, and that previous versions of the

desktop client had been uninstalled.

See the SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform Administrator Guidefor information about setting

rights using the Central Management Console.

3.2.2 Silent installations

Silent installations allow you to install and configure SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence on multiple Windowsclient machines.

You can run an unattended silent installation from the SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform Client

Tools media using a response.inifile. You can also specify installation parameters directly at the command

line. All options available during interactive installations are also available during silent installations.

Note

Scripted and command-line silent installations use the same parameters. Using a response.inifile is

recommended if your installation requires a large number of parameters, or if you want to integrate scripts and

commands into your own installation scripts.

SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform does not support silent installations when the installation

files are on multiple media sources. In this case, you must first copy all installation contents to a single location,

and then run the silent installation.

Caution

Before you install the desktop client, ensure that your SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform

administrator has provided users with desktop client application rights, and that previous versions of the

desktop client had been uninstalled.

See the SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform Administrator Guidefor information about setting

rights using the Central Management Console.

On the 64-bit Windows server, the file is located in the following folder:

\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win64_x64\fonts

On the 32-bit Windows client, the file is located in the following folder:

\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win32_x86\fonts

Note

To ensure consistent fonts are used, ensure that the fonts added to Web Intelligence Rich Client client machine

deployments are also added to BI Platform server machine deployments.

A sample of the default fontalias.xmlappears below:

You need to do the following:

Define a FONTentity for each new font.

List the font name in the NAMEattribute for the Web Intelligence applications.

Specify in each FONTATTRIBUTEentity the LOGICAL name of the font, as well as the PHYSICAL(file name) of

the font. Any substation fonts will be listed in the PHYSICALattribute separated by semicolons.

Give each FONTentity four FONTFAMILYentities, one for each of the PLATFORMtypes:

Platform Name Description

win Font name as it is listed in Windows OS Used in Microsoft export formats, such

as Excel.

java Font name as it appears in Java. Sub

stitution fonts are separated by

comma.

Used in the Java Web Intelligence App

let or Rich Client interface.

html Font name specified in HTML style.

Substitution fonts are separated by

comma.

Used in the Web Intelligence HTML in

terface.

Note

Specify the font name in the NAME attribute. Use single-quotes around the font name if it contains space

characters.To specify possible substitute fonts, specify their name after the font name, separated by

commas.

The ttfPLATFORMentity should contain four FONTATTRIBUTEentities, for each possible combination of BOLD

and ITALICBoolean attributes:

Table 5:

BOLD ITALIC Description

false false Regular typeface

true false Bold typeface

false true Italic typeface

true true Bold italic typeface

Note

We recommend that you use typeface-specific TrueType fonts for bold, italic and bold-italic. If a non-regular

FONTATTRIBUTEentity is missing from a FONTentity, the Web Intelligence Processing Server synthesizes the

font typeface from the specified regular typeface. Synthesized fonts will have lower quality than fonts explicitly

designed for non-regular typefaces.

6.6 Updating the online help system

Every time you open Web Intelligence Rich Client, and regardless of which work mode you are in, the help that

appears when you click the Helpicon is that which is installed on your local computer. If the local version of Web

Intelligence Rich Client is different from the BI launch pad version and the version of the Web Intelligence HTML

and Applet interfaces on the BI launch pad, then the Web Intelligence Rich Client help will not correspond with the

help of the interfaces accessed in the BI launch pad.

To update the Web Intelligence Rich Client interface and its help, you need to re-install this interface from the

latest SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform CD or from the BI launch pad preferences.
