Hi Bill, I've been meaning to try and make an iapp from one my applications using the Application Distribution - Installer. It should be much more forgiving of Addon dependencies because it essentially is doing a minimal (well sort of) J install, and of course it will let you prepare installers for multiple platforms. I see you ran into some hiccups using it, hopefully we can identify them & get them ironed out. Will let you know how I get on.
