Hi Fei Min,
As far as I can tell there is no way to automate this unless you have one of Adobe's expensive Live Cycle server products. Rick Rick Quatro Carmen Publishing Inc. 585-659-8267 rick at frameexpert.com http://www.frameexpert.com From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Fei Min Lorente Sent: Friday, January 06, 2012 7:55 PM To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: Enabling a PDF for comments from FrameMaker Settings FrameMaker 7.2 on Windows XP, Adobe Acrobat 6 Professional, and TimeSavers 5.0. We normally password-protect our PDFs produced from FrameMaker to guard against accidental or deliberate changes, but we had a customer request the ability to annotate the PDF file. Under Adobe PDF Security, I found the option for Changes Allowed: "Commenting, filling in form fields, and signing". I thought everything was all right because I could then comment on the resultant PDFs, but I was using Acrobat. I then found out that people who are using Reader cannot comment on the files unless I enable commenting in Acrobat. Is there a way to enable commenting using any of the above tools that I told you that I have, before the PDF is generated? We have an automated output system, so I must be able to configure the settings in one of them without opening the PDF file after it's been generated. If the answer is no, then will I have any better luck with FrameMaker 10 and Adobe Acrobat X on Windows 7? We're supposed to upgrade this year.
