Hi Christiaan,
Yes, my colleague and I have read the FAQ on the Wiki, it clearly states
> The notes can even be viewed on Windows using the embedded .fdf file.
This is precisely why we chose to export the test PDF document (with
annotations) as a PDF bundle. We have not tried this with Adobe Acrobat
Reader X version 10.0.1 on a machine running Windows XP Pro and Windows 7
Home Edition (with the same PDF bundle unzipped to both NTFS and FAT
formatted volumes). The results are the same: when we open the FDF file from
the bundle, an alert panel labeled "Adobe Reader" appears stating:
> The comments could not be imported because the document's permissions do
not allow comment import operations
I have screen captures of this that I'd be happy to share, and also a sample
PDF bundle (we have tried with a few different PDF documents to reduce the
odds that we somehow ended up with an anomaly).
Can you (or someone else in the community) please try this with Acrobat
Reader X 10.0.1? This is version of Reader is the most current version
available from Adobe when electing to download Acrobat from their web site
(I don't have any previous versions to test against).
Thanks,
-Hydro
