When you send comments, a PDF containing your comments is sent as an email attachment to the review initiator.
When you publish comments, your comments are saved to the comment server.
Options in the document message bar
The options that are available in the document message bar depend on how the initiator set up the review and whether
you can access the comment server. Similar options may also appear in the Comment & Markup toolbar.

no longer connected to the review. Work Offline lets you work in offline mode, where you can make comments but
cannot publish them until you switch back to online mode. To switch to online mode, click Reconnect To Server.
Check for newly published comments
When you participate in a shared review, published comments on your local hard drive are synchronized with the
comments on the server. You are notified when new comments are available. Because synchronization continues after
the PDF is closed, you'll continue to receive notifications.
Messages in the notification area inform you when new reviewers join the review, when updates occur (multiple
reviews), when deadlines change, and when synchronization attempts fail. They also inform you when a new broadcast
subscription is added in the Tracker. You can change how often messages appear and how often comments are
synchronized, and you can manually trigger the synchronization process.
