Start a browser-based review
When you initiate a browser-based review, a PDF is uploaded to a server, and reviewers receive an email message
with a setup file in Forms Data Format (FDF). When reviewers click this file, the PDF opens in the default web
browser and review settings are configured to enable comments to be uploaded to the remote server. Uploaded
comments are stored as an FDF file in the comments repository, an online location that is accessible to all reviewers.
You can set up the comments repository on the same or a different server as the uploaded PDF.
Note: Add comments to the PDF after you upload it to the server. If you add comments to the PDF before you upload it
to the server, the comments are embedded in the PDF, and you can't edit them later.
Specify the comments repository in the Reviewing preferences. (See "Specify a server for comments" on
1
page 156.)
Start the setup wizard by choosing Comments > Upload For Browser Review.

folder using a UNC (Universal Naming Convention) address (such as \\server\folder).

Comments button in the Comment & Markup toolbar. If your comments aren't uploaded to the server, your
