Starting A Shared Review - Adobe ACROBAT 9 HOW-TOS Manual

#
In Acrobat 8, the shared review process was simplified by allowing the
initiator to set up a folder on a network without needing IT input. With
Acrobat 9 and Acrobat.com, the process is even simpler.
Initiating a shared document review is similar to the process used for
distributing a form. However, while Adobe Reader 7 or 8 can be used for
a form, only Acrobat or Adobe Reader 9 users can participate in a shared
review using Acrobat.com.
Follow these steps to send the review:
1. Click the Comment task button and choose Send for Shared Review to
open the Send for Shared Review wizard.
2. Step through the wizard:
•
On the first screen, click Browse to open a dialog to locate and
select the file for sharing. Click Next.
•
On the next screen, click the "How do you want to collect comments
from your reviewers?" pop-up menu and choose whether to use
Acrobat.com or your own server. The default choice is "Automatically
download & track comments with Acrobat.com" (Figure 79a). Click
Next.
