Setting the custom color option
You can set the color of your comments. For example, you might want to change the color
of your comments to make them easily identifiable from those of other reviewers in a
document, or you might want to specify a different color for each type of comment.The
options you select apply to the current and subsequent comments of the same type
within a document; they are not applied retroactively to prior comments.

Managing comments
All types of comments in Acrobat can be edited. This allows you to make changes and
corrections to comments, as well as replace them.
The Acrobat sort and display capabilities make it easy to manage comments from a
number of sources.You can sort comments by type, author, date, and page, and selectively
display them as groups. The comment outline is a hierarchical list that is shown in the
Comments palette; it is both a navigation tool and an organization tool.
