When an FDF file is opened or imported into a PDF document, the
comments appear in the proper places on the pages. This means that
FDF files from multiple reviewers can be imported into one central copy
of the PDF document, and the comments of all reviewers can be viewed
at once.
To export comments as an FDF file:
1. Open the PDF document and add your comments.
2. Choose Export All to Data File from the Options pull-down at the
top of the Comments list ( ).
3. Choose whether to export an FDF or XFDF le, name the exported
comments le, and then click Save.
To import comments into a PDF document, double-click the FDF file
(indicated by the .fdf file extension) or XFDF file. Acrobat automatically
opens the original PDF file (if it has not been moved or renamed) and
imports the comments from the FDF file. If Acrobat is unable to locate
the associated PDF, you will be asked to locate it manually. Alternatively,
you can open the original PDF document and choose Import Data File
from the Options pull-down menu in the Comments pane, select the
FDF file containing the comments, and click Select.
Summarizing All Comments in a PDF
Summarizing comments is a convenient way to get a synopsis of all the
comments associated with a PDF document. The summary function
creates a new PDF document that is independent of the one that
contains the original comments.
To summarize comments in a PDF file, choose Create Comment
Summary from the Options pull-down menu in the Comments pane.
Select options in the Summarize Options dialog box, and click OK. You
can choose to create only a list of comments, or have Acrobat create a
summary that contains a thumbnail of each page, with connecting lines
identifying the source of each comment. Acrobat generates a new PDF
of the summary, which you can save, print, or send to your customer
just like any PDF file.
To print a summary of comments in a PDF file, simply print the
summary PDF file you’ve already created. Or in the original commented
PDF, choose Print With Comment Summary from the Options pull-
down menu in the Comments pane, select layout options, and click OK.
Collaborate Live
Collaborate Live is a free service available in Acrobat X Pro, which
allows you to invite up to two other participants to review a PDF in an
online session. In a Collaborate Live session, the participants view a
document with a live chat window. When sharing pages, the document
page and magnification is shared with all participants, so that everyone
sees the same part of a document. When one participant changes the
view magnification, or navigates to another page, all participants are
taken to the new magnification or page.
To initiate a Collaborate Live session:
1. Choose Comment > Review > Collaborate Live. e Acrobat.com
screen is displayed; click the Next buon.
2. Sign in with your Adobe ID and click Sign In. If you don’t yet have
an Adobe ID, click the Create Adobe ID hyperlink to create one.
3. A form appears, containing e-mail text and elds for recipients’ e-
mail addresses. Enter recipients’ addresses in the To and CC elds,
and modify the e-mail text if you wish.
4. By default, the PDF is sent as an aachment to the e-mail. Alter-
natively, you can check the option to store the le on Acrobat.com
and just include a hyperlink to the le.
Acrobat adds the suffix “_collab.pdf” to the filename, saves this new
PDF in the same directory as the original file, creates the e-mail, and
launches your default e-mail program. You can further edit the text of
