How to enable commenting for Adobe Reader users--missing menu option?

According to the help file, I can enable commenting in Acrobat Pro X so that Adobe Reader users can use annotation and commenting tools.  The help file says:
"In an open PDF, choose Comments > Enable For Commenting In Adobe Reader, and then save the PDF.:"
However, all is see on my menubar is:
According to the help file, I *should* see something like the following:
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat Pro X.  I have installed Acrobat Pro X on a machine that has never had Acrobat Pro installed on it.  Each time I see only the shortened version of menu options.
So, why do I only see File, Edit, View, Window and Help?  Where are  the other menu items, such as Comments, Forms, Tools, etc?  Is there  something I need to do to enable them?

*Thank you*.  That worked.  How odd that the help file was out-of-date with my version of Acrobat.  Thanks you again!

  • Creating PDF interactive image fields for Adobe Reader users

    I Need to create image fields to PDF flyers that Adobe Reader users can click on to import JPG/EPS image files and print out. I've seen this done on a PC using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7. My system is Mac OS 10.3.9 using the Adobe Creative Suite 2 Premium. Since LiveCycle is a PC program only, I find I'm limited to creating live text fields only. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    *Thank you*.  That worked.  How odd that the help file was out-of-date with my version of Acrobat.  Thanks you again!

  • How to register Plugin for Adobe Reader X (10.0)?

    Hi,
    I have received Adobe RIKLA license with digital certificate (.rc) and it's working fine in Adobe Reader 9. I used SignPlugin method register our Plugin with Adobe Certificate. My question is 'how to proceed for Adobe Reader X (latest version)?'. Please provide some pointer.

  • How to install plugins for Adobe Reader as non-root?

    I'm using Acrobat on a linux system, but I'm not the administrator. I need to install a new plugin (FileOpen.api from www.nr.com) to open their pdf-files. They explain very nice how to place that plugin in the plug_ins directory, but that's a systems directory and you need to be root to do that, which is not an option in my case. However: it is very common practice on linux systems that these type of things can also be installed under some users-dir, for example ~/.acrobat/plug_ins This example definitely does NOT work, but which directory will work?

    Hi Jakob,
    You can place your plugins in a folder named 'plug_ins' under your home directory:
    $HOME/plug_ins
    They will be picked up by the Adobe Reader if they are Reader-enabled.

  • Enabling comments for Acrobat Reader

    My reviewers are running Reader 9 (we have tried 8 also) and are unable to see the comment bar and therefore cannot review my pdf I sent( via email). In the document properties, when viewed from Reader, it shows commenting is not allowed.  I am running Acrobat 9 and I understand that I have to use the Enable analysis and Review for Reader from the Comments menu. Problem is, that option is not in the menu. How do I enable the menu option for my reviewers to be able to make comments?
    thanks,
    Kelly

    You can find the option in Comments menu (Acrobat->Comments menu->Enable for commenting and Analysis in Adobe Reader) after opening the PDF file.

  • How to Enable Comments in Adobe Acrobat Professional?

    Hai Pals,
    Am doing one desktop application for Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 in Java. Am in need to enable the comment option in Acrobat. I have idea to do this requirement through some other Third Party Scripts. Even i done that by script means, i want to do the interaction between the script and my application in JAVA. So, The better way i chosen was creating the entire application by JAVA. I have found some information by Google. There is some package to access the Adobe called adobe-utilities.jar. By using the package we can access the adobe application. Can someone guide me to develop my application module?

    Thanks For your Response. I got some idea through Google. I think it's possible with adobe lifecycle. But i have'nt any idea about that. I have found that some JAR like adobe-utilities.jar,j2ee.jar has some facilities to do the existing operations with a JAVA code. Is there any other technology like Scripting, StartupScripts or etc.,..

    I have installed Adobe Reader 10.1.0,  and I want to upgrade it to 10.1.3. Do I only need install Adobe Reader 10.1.3 update?? Or I also need install 10.1.1 and 10.1.2 updates??? Thanks.

  • PDF opens slower after enabling comments for Reader

    I enabled commenting for Adobe Reader to my PDF and now when I try to open the document in Reader it takes about 15 seconds longer. Ok, its just 15 seconds, but still...all my other pdf documents open instantly. Is Adobe Reader loading/checking the entire document for comments?--maybe that's why it takes longer?

  • How to enable commenting in PDF?

    Using RH9. Generating a PDF for review from WebHelp. RH shows me the Create PDF for review dialog box but the Enable commenting in Adobe Reader option is dimmed. How can I activate this feature?

    Hi there
    Just a comment and observation here on a couple of things.
    Sure, it's Adobe's sandbox and they are free to do what they like with their products. However, they do tend to listen to customers in order to decide which features to add, remove or enhance. And if they hear from several different customers, they pay more attention. You get their ear by completing a Wish Form/Bug Report. These are always read by the product teams.
    Soooo, you (and any others reading this that feel this way) should please submit a Wish Form to advise Adobe that you want to see these "suite only" features work with the stand alone versions of the product. But here's the kicker. The features should only work if you have the other required Adobe software. What I mean by this is that many folks purchase Acrobat separately and RoboHelp separately as individual items. It seems ridiculous to me (as I'm sure it does to you) that if you have both pieces of the required software, that a feature requiring both would also require a "special version" of both so they are now integrated. It forces the customers into making an additional purchase and duplicating software just to get a feature working.
    And your comment about Ankur? Well, completing that Wish Form (link is in my sig) will put your comment in front of his eyes. Really it will! Posting here probably won't do it. It's like shouting at the wind and hoping the president hears it. Completing the Wish Form is like making a direct telephone call to the president's answering machine.
    Cheers... Rick

    What do you mean you are "using Adobe Reader'?   Inside of a browser?  Inside of your application?  Stand-alone?
    What version of Reader?
    Is the PDF Reader-Enabled??

  • Enable 3D Measuring for Adobe Reader in PDF saved by Acrobat Pro Ext plugin

    Hello,
    I'm developing a plugin for Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended to embed a 3D object in a PDF.
    I would like to enable Adobe Reader users to measure the 3D object on the saved file,
    like you can do with the menu "Advanced"->"Extend Features in Adobe Reader" in Acrobat Pro Ext.
    Is it possible to do that with the SDK without user interaction?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks, I read something about that LiveCycle, but I don't understand how I should use it...
    I'm developing a plugin for Adobe Acrobat and I would like to save the file with the 3D measuring enabled, without the user interaction.
    Is the LiveCycle usable within an Acrobat plugin?
