Review and commenting
Acrobat Connect meetings Access the real-time, web-based collaboration capabilities of Acrobat Connect (sold
separately). Click the Start Meeting button to escalate from a document review to real-time communication with
others over the Internet. Acrobat Connect uses Adobe Flash® CS3 Professional and a personal meeting room for
screen sharing, audio and video conferencing, whiteboarding, and more. When you first click the Start Meeting
button, you can create a free trial account. Each subsequent time, you go directly to your Acrobat Connect personal
meeting room. (Acrobat Connect is not available in all languages.) See “Meetings” on page 160.
Shared reviews Initiate a review where comments are stored on a central server, allowing all participants to see
comments in real time. No extra server software is needed. Shared reviews work with a folder on a network server,
a Windows SharePoint workspace, or a web folder on a web server. Comments are automatically retrieved, even if
Reader isn’t running and could be added even when you are disconnected from the network. Notifications alert users
that there are new comments. Comments from reviewers outside the firewall can be merged into the shared review,
and you can enable Reader users to participate in reviews. See “Start a shared review” on page 157.
Review Tracker Provides details about all active reviews. For shared reviews, details include the number of
comments from a reviewer, the review deadline, server status, unread reviews, and a summary of updated shared
reviews. See “Tracking PDF reviews” on page 165.
Commenting and markup enhancements View and accurately place callout and cloud markups as you apply them.
The callout leader automatically moves as you position the callout. Selected comments are highlighted for easier
visibility when zoomed out. Rotate stamps and select all tools from a single, integrated toolbar. See “Commenting”
on page 168.
