Reviews and commenting

Last updated 1/14/2015

The Server Status shows the state of all servers being used for reviews and distributed forms. The check mark icon

next to the server name indicates that the last synchronization attempt was successful. The warning icon

indicates that the last synchronization attempt was unsuccessful. The warning icon indicates that the server is

disconnected from the network, has problems writing data to the disk, or has some other problem. Contact your
network administrator for assistance.

RSS

You can use the Tracker to subscribe to web content that uses the RSS (Really Simple Syndication) format, such as news
feeds and music channels. RSS format is compatible with XML and RDF formats.

Note: If the RSS button doesn’t appear in Tracker, open the Preferences dialog box in Acrobat and select Tracker. Select
Enable RSS Feeds In Tracker, and click OK. Then close and reopen Tracker.

Track reviewed PDFs

1

In the Tracker, expand the appropriate folder:

Sent

Lists PDFs in reviews that you initiated. (Not available in Reader.)

Joined

Contains PDFs in reviews that you’ve received. PDFs appear in this list only after you open them. If you open

a PDF from an email attachment and don’t save the PDF, the entry is removed from the Tracker when you close the
file.

Note: PDFs listed in bold contain one or more of the following updates: comments that you haven’t read yet, a deadline
update from the review initiator, and reviewers who have joined the review.

2

Select a PDF.

Information specific to the selected PDF review appears on the right. Shared reviews list deadline information,
reviewers who have joined the review, and the number of comments.

Save the PDF with comments

You can save a copy of the review PDF that contains all the comments that reviewers have published or that you’ve
imported (merged).

If the PDF is in a shared review, you can save an archive copy. The copy is no longer connected to the shared review,
and you can edit both content and comments in it.

If you want to create a copy of a shared PDF to distribute to others, use the Save As command. The resulting file includes
all comments that were published up to that point. It can be moved, copied, or renamed without affecting its connection

to the review or to the comment server.

To save a copy of a review PDF with all the comments, open the file, and then do one of the following:

• For a shared review, choose File > Save As Archive Copy. Alternatively, click the Status button in the document

message bar and choose Save As Archive Copy.

• For an email-based review, choose File >Save As to save a new copy of the PDF. This most recently saved version

is now the tracked PDF. The old version is the archive copy.
