Hello all,

I was wondering whether or not it is possible to create a custom status for comments, in addition to those provided by default under Migration and Review.

We would like use this as a way of marking author's corrections when sending corrected proofs back to the compositor, as these corrections are billed. It would be nice to have a custom status "Author's correction" just to make it as clear as possible. If not, we could just reserve one of the existing statuses within our comment and markup system.

Thanks for any enlightenment.

Thank you lkassuba,

I'll definitely go through everything on that page. I'll be starting from scratch, but the project could be very interesting in the long term.

Have a nice day!

Andrew
