Join Brian Wood for an in-depth discussion in this video Reviewing comments, part of Acrobat 9 Pro Essential Training.
If you have a PDF that has lots of comments in it from several people, you may want to see how…to navigate those comments a little bit easier than trying to come out in open every little note.…I have got grun_project_review.pdf open right now and if you look,…there is a bunch of comments that are sitting out here.…Now I tend to get a little crazed with all these comments out here.…You don't know what look at first.…Sometimes they are really hard to see as a matter of fact you can see Grunbyte Project right here,…there is one right in the middle there called Inc.…and that's a little rough to see.…If you take your cursor and start just hovering around the page you don't have to open the pop…up notes to see what they are talking about.…
So if you just hover over this little icon here, this is wrong version, wrong logo,…you get several people commenting on this at once.…What I tend to do is instead of coming out here and actually clicking and looking…at all these, I usually open the comments list.…Coming down here you will see the Comments Navigation panel, click on that, it will open it up and what I tend…

Q: After scanning a file to PDF, the text is not editable, despite following the steps in the “Editing text” movie. How do I make a PDF with editable text?
A: Text may not be editable after scanning to PDF since most scanners scan a document and convert the contents to a digital image. To check if text is editable, open the PDF and select the Text and Image tool. Position the pointer over the "text" in the PDF, and if a I-beam cursor appears, it's text. If not, it's most likely an image. In that case, the image needs to be converted to text first by choosing Document > OCR Text Recognition > Recognize Text Using OCR, then choosing ClearScan as the method.
