How to enable commenting in RH8

In the Adobe online help, it states that one can "enable commenting" and the comments are stored to a shared folder somewhere. How to enable this in RH8?

I think that only applies to the locally-installed flavour of AIRHelp

How To Enable Commenting By Others??

Could you tell me how to enable commenting by the individuals I send 3D PDF's to. It is my understanding that recipients of my 3D PDF's do have the ability to measure and comment on my PDF's. Thank you in advance.

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??

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

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!

How to enable Comment functionality in Design Studio

Hi Experts,
How can we enable comment functionality in Design studio? This is important for users:
a) To enter comments in the application
b) To see the comments after reopening the application again. This means, it needs to be stored somewhere.
This application is built on top of a BEx Query.
Really appreciate your help here!!
Thanks,
Jomy

Hi Jomy - I see your point
Looking at Figure 7 here Lumira and Design Studio Updates Roadmap from ASUG Annual Conference - Part 2 it is not going to be built in Design Studio
So my opinion only here - either you buy CubeServ add-on or you build SDK yourself. As an accountant I would do cost-benefit - how long (cost) would it take for someone other than CubeServ to do it versus buying from CubeServ.
Maybe others have ideas?

How to enable comments on Reader

Hello,
One of the main uses I had of Acrobat 9 was to enable comments on my PDF files for Adobe Reader. Now I upgraded to Acrobat XI, and I could not locate that option anywhere. I looked for it in the menus and the help, Googled it and searched here, to no avail.
I understand that Adobe Reader XI does not need that permission to put comments on files. But I still need to enable the comments, for users who will get my files that do not have Adobe Reader XI - in particular Linux users, given that the most recent Reader for Linux is 9.5.5.
Can anyone help me? Am I missing something obvious?
Thanks,
Paulo

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?
By,
MO

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.,..

Enabling Commenting Tools in embedded mode

We have own plug-in which provides collaboration capabilities for reviewing documents introducing custom annotations with categorization based on standard Acrobat annotation feature. However Commenting tool is not available in post 6 Acrobat versions when Acrobat runs in embedded mode. I suspect that Adobe suppressed the feature to avoid competition from similar to our solutions. Adobe also discontinued earlier Acrobat versions so our big customers have quite serious problem now, because they can't buy newer Acrobat . . So I am interested if somebody from Adobe senior level engineering or sales reads the forum and can contact me to resolve the issue. Again if some developers know how to enable Commenting tool from plug-in when Acrobat is running embedded, then please share your experience.

I'm not certain drog is going to get what he want here. It sounds like he doesn't want to write a plugin to create Adobe annotations, but rather his plugin is capturing annotation information when the Adobe tools place and/or modify annotations.
That's not going to work in a browser unless Adobe changes what's allowed in the browser. If I'm not mistaken, Adobe tools will not create or modify annotations when the PDF is viewed in a browser. The user can always save the file to disk and open it directly with Acrobat (or Reader if it's comment enabled) to get access to the Adobe commenting tools.
Perhaps that's what drog should do - have his plugin give instructions to the user to save to disk and open directly with Acrobat/Reader. It's fairly simple to recognize when the PDF is viewed in a browser. If this approach is not acceptable to his workflow, then drog is going to have to re-invent the wheel and write a custom annotation handler to add/modify annotations.
Hope this helps

You can install your own comment page using various methods...

The alternative is to move your blog to Wordpress and retrieve all your comments from MobileMe before it disappears...

How do I enable commenting on a dynamic fillable pdf?

This question applies to both Acrobat 9 and X. It seems like it's either one or the other - if I enable commenting, it asks that I use the File > Print to print as a flat non-fillable PDF, but if I want to keep the form fillable, then I cannot enable commenting.
In Acrobat 9, "Advanced > Extend Features" only enables form filling, not commenting. "Comments > Enable Commenting" doesn't seem to do anything other than pop up that window to tell me to print the PDF. I believe the same limitations apply to Acrobat X, in "File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF".
Is there a way to make my form fillable, but allow the commenting toolbar (sticky notes, highlighting, etc) in Adobe Reader?

The only way to enable BOTH sets of options is via our LiveCycle Reader Extensions Server product.

Cannot Enable Commenting/Annotations Tools

I want to enable the use of Commenting/Annotations tools in Reader by setting up a shared review via Acrobat 10 Standard. From what I've read it seems that I should be able to do this by simply using the Shared Review wizard, however the PDF it generates only has the Sticky and Highlighter tools available in Reader.
I've read many different discussions on this issue, which tend to say things like "well you have to enable commenting through Acrobat"... and I get that, but my quesiton is how to do so. I've also seen step by step instructions such as "go to 'File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Commenting and Mesuring'..." which I've attempted but I only have 'F > SA > REPDF > Enable Forms Fill-In & Save in Reader' as an option.
Perhaps this has something to do with Acrobat 10 Standard (i.e. not Pro)?
So please contribute an answer if you know the solution to my problem
Thank You!

In Adobe v.7.1.0, Standard Version, the Comments menu does not have the
"Enable for Commenting" option.
Please see attached.
Is it only in Adobe Acrobat, v.8.0, that the Enable for Commenting
option exists to allow your reviewers who only have Reader to add
comments to the PDF document that you distribute?
Best regards,
Susan Steen
