Setting up an email-based review
When an initiator sends an Adobe PDF document in an email-based review, reviewers
receive the PDF document as an email attachment. They can add their comments to the
PDF document and return the document with their comments by using the Send
Comments button in the Commenting toolbar. In email-based reviews, Acrobat enables
commenting tools and features in Adobe Reader that would otherwise be unavailable.
When the initiator opens an email attachment sent by a reviewer, the master PDF
document opens with options to import comments or open the reviewer's copy of the PDF
file.
In a tracked review, the PDF file that the initiator specifies becomes the master file to
which comments are imported. Each reviewer receives a tracked copy of this PDF
document, which allows the initiator to monitor the review status. Reviewers can save a
copy of the PDF document to their local hard drive and successfully transfer the tracking
data to that copy if they use the Save A Copy command. Any form fields in a PDF
document are not fillable during the review.
Important: Acrobat 7.0 and Adobe Reader 7.0 are recommended for participating in
reviews. Reviewers may use Acrobat 6.0 to review documents but some commenting tools
and features won't be available. Comments are sent in FDF from Acrobat 6.0.
In an email-based review, the initiator uses the Send By Email For Review wizard to start the
review. Participants add comments and send them to the initiator.
