Delete comments
You cannot delete other reviewers’ comments in a shared review, nor can you delete locked comments. If you add
comments to a PDF and then publish your comments, you can’t delete those comments.
To delete all of the comments in a PDF, use the Examine Document feature. The Examine Document feature isn’t
available in Reader.
