Introduction  
The OEM Preinstallation Kit (OPK) for Office 2013 is a set of tools, documentation, and product  
files that assists licensed original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in preloading Office 2013 on  
new computers for distribution to end users. Preloading this productivity suite adds immediate  
value for your customers and also gives them the option to purchase Product Key Cards for  
Office 2013. Users are prompted to install Office 2013 on their computers.  
User Startup Experience  
After you use the Office 2013 OPK to preload Office 2013 and install the out-of-box experience  
(OOBE) application on a computer, the user can access Office 2013 from either the Windows 7  
Start menu or the Windows 8 Start screen by choosing Microsoft Office 2013. A dialog box is  
then displayed and the user can choose one of the following options:  
Purchase This option sends the user to an online retail site to purchase Office 2013, if  
the user is connected to the Internet, or displays information about how to purchase  
Office 2013, if the user is offline.  
Activate This option prompts the user to enter a valid Office 2013 product key or pin,  
and then leads the user through the installation of Office 2013, including the First Run  
Experience.  
Try This option sends the user online to try Office, if the user is connected to the  
Internet.  
Users also see these options in a dialog box if they attempt to open an Office 2013 document  
without having the necessary Office product installed.  
OPK DVD Folders and Files  
The OPK DVD contains three folders and two files in its root directory. This section describes  
each folder and file.  
Docs Folder  
The Docs folder contains the following files:  
Office 2013 OPK guide (this document). This guide describes how to use the OPK tools  
and available customization options. After reading the OPK guide, you will be able to:  
o
Preload Office 2013  
2013 OPK Guide  
2
 
     
o
Use OPK tools and utilities to create customized installation configurations  
CoConfig.xml file. This is an XML file that enables you to configure a custom preload  
location for Office 2013.  
OOBE Folder  
The out-of-box experience (OOBE) folder contains the Office 2013 installation file,  
oemoobe.msi. The oemoobe.msi file is not meant to be run by itself. Instead, run the  
oemsetup.ll-cc.bat file.  
Office15 Folder  
The Office15 folder contains all Office 2013 products, and contains both worldwide and  
language-specific installation resources for all Office 2013 SKUs  
If multiple languages are combined, a multilingual installation source is created, just as in retail  
versions of Office 2013.  
The Office15 folder contains x86 and x64 folders that contain the installation files for 32-bit and  
64-bit versions of Office 2013.  
The copytoserver.bat File  
The copytoserver.bat file copies the contents of the OPK DVD to a network installation point for  
later use. It copies the OOBE, and Office15 folders and scripts from the source to the location  
specified in the command-line parameter, overwriting any files that are already present.  
The syntax for running the copytoserver.bat file is:  
copytoserver <Destination>  
where <Destination> is the location where the installation files are to be copied. This  
parameter is required to successfully complete the command.  
For example, the command  
copytoserver \\server1\oem\opk  
copies the files on the OPK DVD to the installation location \\server1\oem\opk.  
The oemsetup.ll-cc.bat File  
The oemsetup.ll-cc.bat file (where ll is the two-letter abbreviation for the language and cc is the  
two-letter abbreviation for the country or culture) preloads Office 2013 and installs the OOBE.  
Run the oemsetup.ll-cc.bat file for each language to be preloaded.  
The syntax for running the oemsetup.ll-cc.bat file is:  
2013 OPK Guide  
3
 
oemsetup.ll-cc [Referral=<ReferralCode>] [x64]  
Administrator permissions are required to run the oemsetup.ll-cc.bat. For parameter  
descriptions, see Preloading Office 2013 later in this guide.  
For example, the command:  
oemsetup.ll-cc referral=nnnnn  
With a referral code of nnnnn, preloads Office 2013 and installs the OOBE.  
Referral Codes  
Some resellers are eligible to obtain OEM referral codes from Microsoft on user purchases of  
Office 2013. These codes enable computers to be associated with the OEM. The referral code is  
a five-digit decimal number from 00000 to 32760.  
For more information about obtaining a referral code, contact your Microsoft account manager.  
Multiple Languages  
You can preload multiple language versions of Office 2013simply repeat the preloading  
process for each language. However, the user can install only one language version of  
Office 2013. By default, the language version of the OOBE application matches the Windows  
language settings and the Office 2013 language that is preloaded on the computer. If this match  
doesn’t take place, the language dialog box will contain languages that are based on the  
Office 2013 preloaded languages.  
Architecture  
The installation process for the OPK is the same for computers that run 32-bit operating systems  
or 64-bit operating systems. You can preload the 32-bit version of Office 2013 on computers  
that run either 32-bit or 64-bit operating systems. You can preload the 64-bit version of  
Office 2013 only on computers that run 64-bit operating systems.  
Important: To prevent possible compatibility issues with add-ins or third-party applications,  
preload only the 32-bit version of the OPK on both 32-bit and 64-bit computers.  
System Requirements for Office 2013  
Office 2013 was designed for use with the Windows® operating system, and requires one of the  
following versions of Windows:  
2013 OPK Guide  
4
 
       
Windows® 7 RTM or a later version.  
Windows® 8 RTM or a later version.  
The Setup program cannot install Office 2013 on a system that cannot support Office 2013.  
We recommend that you install the latest updates and service packs available for each  
respective operating system before you install Office 2013.  
Pinning OOBE to the Windows 7 Start Menu (Optional)  
To make it easier for users to locate and use Office 2013, you can optionally pin the OOBE  
application to the Windows Start menu. On the Start menu, pin a shortcut that points to  
MSOO.exe, which is located at %programfiles%\microsoft office\options14.  
Note: Be aware that pinning this shortcut to the Start menu is optional and is not required to  
preinstall Office 2013. The shortcut will remain on the Start menu until the user unpins it or  
until OOBE is uninstalled.  
For instructions about how to pin shortcuts to the Start menu for a particular version of  
Windows, see the appropriate Windows OEM Preinstallation Kit.

Preloading Office 2013  
There are two methods for using the Office 2013 OPK to preload Office 2013:  
Low-volume Resellers who plan to preload Office 2013 on relatively few target  
computers can use this option. Using the low-volume option, you simply preload from  
the Office 2013 OPK DVD directly onto the target computer.  
High-volume Resellers who plan to preload on many target computers can use this  
option. Using the high-volume option, you create a network installation point on a  
server, make any necessary customizations, and preload from the network installation  
point onto the target computers.  
The following figure illustrates both the low-volume (default) and high-volume (customized)  
installation methods.  
Low-volume installation (default)  
High-volume installation (customized)  
Depending on how much you want to customize an installation of Office 2013, you can perform  
either a default installation or a customized installation. If you plan to use the default  
configuration and will not customize the installation at all, see Low-volume Installation Process,  
which appears later in this guide. This is the easiest method of installation. If you plan to  
customize the installation, see High-volume Installation Process, also later in this guide.  
Customizations can include such changes as adding an icon to the desktop or installing more  
than one language.  
2013 OPK Guide

Low-volume Installation Process  
Follow these steps to install the OPK on individual target computers in a low-volume  
environment. This procedure lets you install the default configuration of the OPK from the DVD  
directly onto the target computer.  
To perform a low-volume (default) installation  
1. Insert the DVD into the DVD drive on the target computer.  
2. Run oemsetup.ll-cc.bat on the computer to preload Office 2013:  
oemsetup.ll-cc  
where ll-cc is the two-letter abbreviation for the language and country or culture.  
Administrator permissions are required to run the oemsetup.ll-cc.bat file.  
3. Verify the installation by ensuring that all files were copied to  
[FOLDERID_ProgramData]\Microsoft\OEMOffice15 on the target computer. For example,  
c:\ProgramData\Microsoft\OEMOffice15.  
High-volume Installation Process  
Follow these steps to install the OPK on target computers in a high-volume environment. This  
procedure lets you create a network installation point, optionally customize the configuration,  
and install the configuration from the network installation point to the target computers.  
If you plan to customize the installation, keep the following in mind:  
To preload multiple languages, you simply preload each language individually by running  
the appropriate oemsetup.ll-cc.bat file. Make sure that the languages you preload  
match the languages that were preloaded for the operating system. If no language  
matches those of the operating system, the user will be prompted to select a language.  
If you preload Office 2013 to a location other than the default location, you must  
perform these steps:  
1. Copy the OPK DVD folders and files to a hard drive or a network share to which  
you have Write permissions.  
2. In the CoConfig.xml file, specify the custom preload folder for Office 2013  
For example, c:\preload.  
3. In oemsetup.ll-cc.bat, you must indicate that a custom preload location is being  
used, and then specify the location. Update the following lines as shown:  
2013 OPK Guide  
7
 
     
a. set isCustomLocation =1.  
b. set directory=<custom preload folder specified in  
CoConfig.xml>\OEMOffice15\.  
Example: c:\preload\OEMOffice15\.  
where c:\preload= <customer preload folder specified in CoConfig.xml>  
If you modify the CoConfig.xml file, make sure to save it to the  
[FOLDERID_ProgramData]\Microsoft\OEMOffice15 folder. If this file is not found in that  
folder, the program will not run.  
Do not modify the root directory [FOLDERID_ProgramData]\Microsoft\OEMOffice15.  
Modifying the root directory might cause errors during uninstallation.  
To perform a high-volume (customized) installation  
1. Run the copytoserver.bat file to copy the contents of the OPK DVD to a network installation  
point:  
copytoserver <Destination>  
where <Destination> is the location where the installation files are to be copied. Make sure  
to specify the full UNC path. This parameter is required to successfully complete the  
command.  
2. If you decide to preload multiple language versions of Office 2013, for each language, run  
the copytoserver.bat file to copy the contents of the appropriate OPK DVD to the same  
share on the network installation point:  
copytoserver <Destination>  
where <Destination> is the location where the installation files are to be copied. This  
parameter is required to successfully complete the command.  
3. Run the oemsetup.ll-cc.bat file on computers to preload Office 2013 for each language that  
you want to preload:  
oemsetup.ll-cc.bat [Referral=ReferralCode] [x64]  
Note: ll is the two-letter abbreviation for the language and cc is the two-letter abbreviation  
for the country or culture.  
Important: You must specify the [Referral=ReferralCode] parameter when running the  
oemsetup.ll-cc.bat file for the first language. It is not necessary to specify the parameter  
again for subsequent languages. If the parameter is specified again, it will be ignored.  
Administrator permissions are required to run the oemsetup.ll-cc.bat file.  
2013 OPK Guide

The parameter descriptions for the oemsetup.ll-cc.bat file are shown in the following table.  
Parameter  
Description  
Referral=ReferralCode  
x64  
Stores the provided OEM referral code in the registry.  
Preloads the Office 2013 64-bit edition instead of the 32-bit  
version.  
Caution: Do not preload the 64-bit version unless that version  
is specifically required.  
4. Verify the installation by ensuring that all of the files were copied to  
[FOLDERID_ProgramData]\Microsoft\OEMOffice15 on the target computer. For example,  
c:\ProgramData\Microsoft\OEMOffice15, and that the OOBE shortcut is in the Windows 7  
Start menu or the Windows 8 Start screen.  
5. If you specified a referral code in step 5, verify that the referral code is correct in the registry  
at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\OfficeSoftwareProtectionPlatform  
(Name=ReferralData, Type=REG_DWORD, Data=<Referral ID>).  
Installation is now complete  
The computer is now ready for distribution to the end user.  
Important:  
For both the low-volume (default) installation and the high-volume (customized)  
installation, after the preload process is complete and the computer is destined for the  
end user:  
Do not run any Office 2013 applications.  
Do not run the OOBE.  
Updating the Installation  
When new versions of the OPK are available, follow this step to update a network installation  
point. This procedure does not overwrite any customizations you made previously.  
2013 OPK Guide

To update a network installation point with a new version of the OPK  
Run the copytoserver.bat file to copy the contents of the OPK DVD to a network installation  
point:  
copytoserver <Destination>  
where <Destination> is the location where the installation files are to be copied. This  
parameter is required to successfully complete the command. Run the copytoserver.bat file  
for all languages that are on the network installation point.
