Record an audio comment

want to place the audio comment.

Add comments in a file attachment
Use the Attach File As Comment tool to embed a file at a selected location in a PDF, so that the reader can open it
for viewing. By adding attachments as a comment, you can reference longer documents that can’t easily be pasted
into a pop-up note or text box. If you move the PDF to a new location, the embedded file automatically goes with it.
To view an attachment, the reader must have an application installed that can open the attachment.
Important: Be sure to use the Attach A File As A Comment tool in the Comment & Markup toolbar when attaching files
for a document review. Document-level file attachments that you attach using the paper clip icon (Attach A File tool)
from the File toolbar aren’t tracked with other comments in a review workflow and may cause your attached comments
to be lost.
1 Choose Tools > Comment & Markup > Attach A File As A Comment Tool
2 Click in the PDF where you want to place the attachment.
3 Select the file that you want to attach, and then click Select. If you’re attaching a PDF, you can highlight areas of
interest in the file using comments.
4 In the Properties dialog box, select the settings for the file icon that appears in the PDF, and then click Close.
The comment attachment appears in the Attachments tab with a page number indicating its location.
Note: To delete the attachment, right-click/Control-click the attached comment icon, and choose Delete.
Paste images as comments
You can use the Paste Clipboard Image As Stamp tool to add images to a PDF. You can copy most image formats from
drawing and image-editing applications, such as Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. If you want to add the
image to PDFs repeatedly, create a custom stamp of the image.
Note: The Paste Clipboard Image As Stamp tool isn’t available until you copy an image.

• In Acrobat, choose Tools > Select & Zoom > Snapshot Tool , and select an image from a PDF.
• In another application, select an image and choose Edit > Copy.
2 Open a PDF.
3 Choose Tools > Comment & Markup > Stamps > Paste Clipboard Image As Stamp Tool.
4 Click in the PDF where you want the image to appear.

• To move the image, drag it.
• To resize the image, select it and then drag one of its handles. Press the Shift key when resizing the image to
maintain the original proportions.
