User Guide
In a shared review, the PDF file contains special information that lets recipients easily join the review and share their comments.
Email-based reviews
Email-based reviews are ideal for soliciting feedback from individuals who either don’t have access to a remote server
or who don’t require a collaborative approach to reviewing documents.
In an email-based review, the initiator sends a PDF to reviewers as an email attachment. Reviewers add their
comments to the PDF and return the document by using the Send Comments button in either the Comment &
Markup toolbar or the document message bar. When receiving these comments, the initiator can merge them into
their copy of the PDF.
The primary limitation to email-based reviews is that participants can’t view each other’s comments during the
review. Initiators can view comments only after receiving them.
Note:
Acrobat 6.0 or later or Adobe Reader 7.0 or later is required to participate in an email-based review.
In an email-based review, participants send their comments to the initiator, who merges the comments into the master copy of the PDF.
