Deploying the software in macOS

The software must be configured and deployed on workstations using the following procedure. All users of the software need access to the installation location.

To configure and deploy CorelDRAW Graphics Suite in macOS

Back to Top
1 Copy all required files to the same location. (See Required files).
2 Open the CorporateDeploy.plist file using a text editor such as TextEdit, and enter the product serial number and the ProfileID in the file. For information about accessing the ProfileID, see ProfileID.
The SerialNumber and ProfileID values in the following example are fictitious.
<key>SerialNumber</key>
<string>DR25C22-XXXXX9X-XXX7XX7-XXX7X6X-X4XXX</string>
<key>ProfileID</key>
<string>0X0000XB00XX01XXXX000010000XX0X10X</string>
3 Deploy the Corporate_CDGS_Intel.pkg or Corporate_CDGS_Silicon.pkg file, which should be in the same folder as CorporateDeploy.plist.
4 Deploy the CorelDRAW Graphics Suite.pkg file.

*

It is essential that you deploy the Corporate_CDGS_[Intel or Silicon].pkg file before deploying the CorelDRAW Graphics Suite.pkg file.

If you use Terminal to deploy the files, make sure Terminal has access to the folder where the required files are located. In System Preferences, click Security & Privacy. In the Security & Privacy dialog box, click the Privacy tab, and choose Files and Folders in the left pane. In the right pane, scroll to Terminal, and enable the check box for the folder where the files are located.

Troubleshooting tips

If you can’t deploy the software, make sure that:

• You are connected to the internet.
• CorelDRAW Graphics Suite is not already installed on the workstation.
• Both the Serial Number and ProfileID are specified correctly in the CorporateDeploy.plist file, which is copied to the same location as the CorelDRAW Graphics Suite.pkg file.

CDAEnterpriseAccess

Allowing access to Corel Cloud through SSO in macOS

Back to Top

The default deployment options allow users to save files to Corel Cloud by signing in with a Corel user account. Using the CDAEnterpriseAccess key, you can give users access to Corel Cloud through SSO after the suite was deployed to the workstations.

During installation, the CDAEnterpriseAccess key is added to registry.xml in /Library/Corel/CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2025/CommonData/Registry. By default, access to Corel Cloud through SSO is restricted so the value is set to "0":

<value data="0" name="cdaenterpriseaccess" origname="CDAEnterpriseAccess" type="REG_SZ" />

To enable access to Corel Cloud through SSO, you must change the data value in registry.xml from "0" to "Enable":

<value data="Enable" name="cdaenterpriseaccess" origname="CDAEnterpriseAccess" type="REG_SZ" />
