Hi Scott,


Yes, but the question was how to automate this enabling so you don't have to do 
it one PDF at a time. This you can't do without an expensive server product.

Using Acrobat 8 and greater, you may enable a PDF For commenting. The person 
doing the commenting should have Acrobat Reader 8 or greater.

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.

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.
