Hi Scott, As Kevin say’s the Java Packager lives in the FX repository at the moment under the fxpackager folder. I can’t comment on what is included in the community-produced binaries, but the Java Packager isn’t shipped with any ARM builds that I’m aware of. Currently it is only for X86 Windows, Linux and Mac. I’ll take this as a request though…
