Reviewing


Acrobat has added the option for you to include others in a reviewing process with PDF documents. You can send a PDF document to your co-workers to get their comments on a file. Use email to start your review or your web browser to host the review. This is a great way to get instant feedback without waiting for the postal or delivery systems to send paper files back and forth. You can set up an emailbased review.

EmailBased Review

Setting up an emailbased review is a fairly easy task. First open the PDF file you want to be reviewed. Choose Send by Email for Review under the Review and Comment menu of the Tasks toolbar. Then enter the email addresses of the reviewers and add your email address, and your email program takes care of the process. Acrobat enters instructions in the email on how to review. Simply click the Send button (if necessary), and the review process is on its way.

Review Tracker

Acrobat also has the capability to track the reviews. Under the Review and Comment menu of the Tasks toolbar is the Track Reviews command. Under the Review Tracker, choose which review you want to track. You'll see the list of any documents you have set up for review. The Review Tracker can also be used to invite more people to your review or send a reminder.

Enabling Review Features for Adobe Reader Users

The Professional and Standard versions of Acrobat can mark up and review PDF files, but those who have the free Adobe Reader don't have that capabilityuntil now, that is. You can choose Comments, Enable for Commenting in Adobe Reader to allow Adobe Reader users to review and comment on your PDF file (see Figure 10.15).
