Office Administrative Template installation with 32 and 64 bits clients

Hello,
I would like to install the Office Administrative Templates (2007, 2010, 2013) but I don't really understand how.
I have several clients computers :

-Windows XP and 7 (the XP will disappear but not now so I have to handle with)

- 32 and 64 bits (OS and associate Office version)

- two Office languages (English and French)

In this case, what I have to put in the domain controllers (or in the central store for GPO, not matters), to cover all the cases ?
I do not understand the x86 or x64 Office administrative templates versions neither how the languages are managed.

Thanks a lot.

The Office2013 Admin Templates+OCT is available in both 32bit and 64bit formats http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35554

Because the download contains the Templates *and* the OCT (OPAX/OPAL and various DLLs etc), and, the OCT itself and also the OCT output file (a customization MSPfile) is architecture-specific, that is why there is a 32bit and a 64bit download.

The ADMX/ADML files themselves, are not architecture-specific.

ADMX and OPAX, is language-neutral, the language-specific details are contained within ADML/OPAL.
