Exporting Comments into cells

I've received a spreadsheet in which most of the information is contained in comments to the cells. Is there a way to export all comments into the next cell so that I can actually read them all, print, view in pdf format etc? I don't relish having to retype all the comments.

You can copy the contents of the comment and paste in to a cell. I am not aware of a mechanism that is automatic.
To suggest a new feature to Apple select the menu item "Numbers > Provide Numbers Feedback"

Export comments into word

I'm trying to export my sticky notes comments into word and I
get prompted that I need word 2002 or later installed on your
system. I have word 2007 installed. Why does this prompt appear? I
need to find out how to export my comments to word. Any help is
much appreciated.
Thanks,
Brian

Thanks for the additional helpful information, Fruhulda. I didn't realize that they had removed important features in the so-called upgrade.
It sounds as if Pages 5 will work for fast and easy tasks, but Pages 09 will be good to have for heavy-duty work. I guess this explains why Pages 5 didn't overwrite Pages 09 on installation. They are really two different apps now.

Can't export comments of comparison between two PDFs, receiving error about "Tagging"/Tagged PDF

Hello,
I am attempting to export comments from a PDF comparison with Adobe Acrobat Pro, and am reciving the following error:
When the PDF was created, the content in it was not Tagged. Exporting comments into a Word document will onloy work if the PDF is a tagged PDF.
To create a tagged PDF, you must select "Change Conversion Settings" from the "Adobe PDF" menu, and check the box labeled "Enable accessibility and reflow with Tagged PDF."
This option was selected on both Word documents, and the error still occurs. I was able to reproduce this error on multiple computers.
A PDF with screenshots of the work flow of the process that causes the error can be found at https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B5zF1j5HnYvFRENhVWo5XzZLZnc/edit?pli=1
This is critical to my work at this point, and any assistance is sincerely appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt

*1- VNC – Has anyone used the version from NateTrue over EDGE? Is that usable? I basically want to use it to access a remote library reference app running on a PC*
I doubt that it will work very well.
*2 - PDF viewing – Can you view PDFs that are stored on websites or just attached to emails? Also, if the PDF has only the image of scanned text, can you still pan/zoom in?*
I don't see why not
*3 - PDF #2 – Can you search within the PDF doc you’re viewing?*
No. The iPhone does not offer search
*- MP3s - If you tap on a link to an mp3 file in the browser, will it play?*
No
*6- Podcasts – Does Safari play podcasts using any of those web-based players you see in site wuch as twit, applephoneshow, etc?*
No, all of these would rely on quicktime, which doesn't really work. The iPhone doesn't support streaming audio very well.
*7 - Contacts – I use the Palm Desktop + Treo and have my contacts in there. I don’t use outlook or other apps. Can I just export my contacts in .csv format and get them into the iPhone? Any suggestions? How about exporting/importing calendar events?*
No you cannot
*8 - Bonus question 3rd party apps – long shot, since the SDK is not out yet – Does anyone know about 3rd party apps DATA? I am really hoping that iSilo will release an iPhone version of its reader since I am a heavy user of a research library I use for my congregation activities (a modern translation of the Bible + lots of other publications) and I wonder how/if that’s going to work.*
Sorry, we cannot answer any questions about the SDK because no details have been made public as of yet.

How can I simply export comments to a single list

Thanks in advance for your help.
Does anybody know how to export the comments in acrobat as a single list (ideally to excel or word)?
Typically my workflow is to convert documents (drawings, figures, sketches, charts, text) that make up a report to PDF and send to clients for review.
A report can be very large in excess of 500 pages.
Clients mark up the compiled PDF report with their comments.
So far so good.
In addressing their comments I need to compile a list/table of the comments they have made so I can simply provide a status/commentry on how I may have addressed their comments.
This simple task has proven extremely difficult with hours on the internet looking for a solution and about 1.5 hrs with Adobe staff (who clearly did not know what they were doing as it took this time to understnd point 1 below).
Tagging to a word document does not help in that;
I operate a mac and apparently exporting comments to word function under the comments options dialogue box does not work on a mac.
The comments pertain to numerouse sources not just word.
Does anybody know how to export the comments as a single list (ideally to excel or word)?
I know how to create a comments summary then export this to word (but as the comments summary is broken up into pages I am still left with a document that is >300 pages long which is no use.
I also tried exporting the summary pdf either a a rich text format or excell which almost worked but the export apears to drop the page numbers since the page number are page headers in the export.This leaves me with a bunch of comments without any relationship back to the source.
Thanks

This can be done with a script. I sent you a PM after your previous post on this subject. Did you see it?

Export comments AND highlighted text?

I know there are several options for exporting comments associated with highlighted text in Adobe Acrobat Pro, but is there a way to export both the comment AND the highlighted text?
Thanks.

Hi,
Any of the annotations on the Comment & Markup toolbar (including those not place with defaults but available via "More Tools") can be exported to a separate PDF file.
Use Summarize Comments or use Create PDF of Comments Summary.
In the options dialog that is presented, select 'Comments only'.
Regarding character strings that have the Highlight annotation "laid" over them;
Go into Acrobat's Preferences.
Select the Category "Commenting".
Look over the configuration settings in the 'Pop-Up Open Behavior'
and the 'Making Comments' panes.
Specifically, select "Copy selected text into Highlight, Cross-Out, and Underline comment pop-ups"
Cross-Out and Underline can be added to the Comment & Markup toolbar via the "More Tools" menu which is available on the default toolbar "ribbon" context menu.
Be well...

Exporting Comments to word

I have a transcript scanned into Acrobat.
I use Acrobat 8 standard.
I do not want to export the document into word.
However, I want to export my comments into Word.
Acrobat cannot export just the comments. When I "export comments" it exports the whole document.
Is there anyway to export the comments and not the whole document?

You can make a list of the comments in another document from the comments menu, then save that list to WORD.

OBIEE - add button for exporting report into specified folder

Hi all,
How do I add button for exporting report into specified folder?
See example below (this is print screen from working OBIEE report)

What version of Crystal Reports are you using? Any service packs or hot fixes installed?
Can you open other xls files with 2007?
Have you ever exported to excel before?
I export to -excel (97-2003) data only- and open the files with Excel 2007 with no problems. Excel 2007 complains about the old format (xls) and wants to convert it to the new excel format. I alsways ignor it.
Maybe the 'garbage' you are seeing is because the layout of your crystal report is not working for the export. Is all the data there but you have extra cells and/or lines, or the data is pushed to the left? I find that I must have the fields packed tightly with no space between them and no space above or below the fields, or I get extra cells between and lines above or below them.
Most of my exports are detail lines with a single line header and columns are set to match the detail line. When exporting multiple lines where the fields do not line up exactly with the ones above them, I may use one or more empty text fields that matches the size of the fields above them to fill the empty space. Sort of like:
line 1:{field1.}{field2...}{field 3}
line 2:(text...}{text.....}{field 4)
And you may need to turn off 'can grow' on all fields as they may cause miss-alignment. All the data will be there when you export it, even what you can not see in Crystal. You will just need to format the cells in Excel to see it.

Can I insert comments into RTF Templates?

I'm using Oracle XML Publisher Template Builder for Word, Version 5.6 Build 45.
The RTF template I'm working on has grown to be quite complex, and I would like to include some documentation on the template, so that other people who might pick up the work after me know what was happening.
Is there any way to insert comments into the template, in the same way as is possible for e.g. in SQL? I tried to insert a Word Comment, but that generates errors.
I suppose the alternative is to document logic decisions etc. in a separate document.
Thanks

How can I import db column comments into the OBIEE presentation layer?

We have a very well designed data mart - it is a star schema and all the fact and dimension table columns have comments in them with their definition and use. There is virtually no change required in the physical or business layer. The only modifications done in the presentation layer was to hide the Pk/Fk columns.
Is there a way to import these column comments into the presentation layer so that the business user can see this comment in the tool tip while hovering over the presentation column in Answers?
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
I assume the comments you mean are stored in user_tab_comments and user_col_comments.
When this is the case you should do the following:
Go to your subject area in your presentation layer. For now I assume the name of this subject area is "Subject Area".
Then right click on this subject area and check "Externalize Descriptions".
Then create an initialization block (session) using this query:
(select 'CD_Subject_Area_' || table_name, comments from user_tab_comments)
union all
(select 'CD_Subject_Area_' || table_name || '_' || column_name, comments from user_col_comments)
Use "Row-wise initialization" for this initialization block.
Two comments:
1) Like I said, I assume Subject Area is the name of your subject area in your presentation layer, so I guess you need to replace this with the name of your Subject Area.
But be sure that you replace each space ' ' with an underscore '_'.
2) Maybe you need to refine above querys by filtering on table_name for those table_names you are using.
Good luck.
Regards,
Stijn

Export comments in Pages 5

When I export to PDF from a Pages 5 document, any comments I have made in the Pages document are not exported. The comments are there when exported to Word but I have them so nicely laid out in Pages! Does anyone know if Pages 5 can export comments to a PDF document?

No version of Pages v5 through v5.5.2 on Yosemite can export comments to a PDF. Tested.
Pages '09 v4.3 does export comments to PDF on Yosemite.

Importing Microsoft Word comments into InDesign CS5.5 [Mac]

Has anyone had success importing Microsoft Word comments into InDesign 5.5? I've read that this is possible, however, all my attempts have failed. I've checked that Track Changes is on in both InDesign and MS Word.
The one pattern with all the files I've attempted is that, by the time I receive the file, the author has already accepted all tracked changes. The comments remain, but they do not import into InDesign.
I have 'track changes' ticked on the import dialog.
Is there anything I'm missing? Tips from people who've done this successfully would be greatfully apprecated.

Hi BhSimonP,
Did you got any solution to this problem. I am having same requirement now.
Please help me with your answer.
Thanks,
Gopal
