Commenting on LaTeX PDF documents with PDF reader


Im currently writing my bachelor thesis with latex and using TexnicCenter. I want to be able to send my generated pdf file to people and they should be able to write comments. It seems like commenting is not allowed by default, how do I change this?

I am using straight to PDF with pdflatex and acrobat reader 9 to read and comment on the files


Solution

  • I think your problem is that acrobat reader doesn't allow commenting on documents not produced by abode approved products, which I don't think pdflatex would be.

    You should look at the free PDF-XChange Viewer which allows you to comment and annotate the text. Its a portable windows app (download), so doesn't need to be installed on your (or the reviewers) machines.
