What ever happened to the option to use a database as a comment repository for browser based reviews? That option was listed with my initial installation of Acrobat Pro 7.0, and now that I'm on 7.09, I can't find it. I really had my heart set on using SQL as the repository. We've been using the network folder system for awhile now, and really like it, but we need the extra flexibility that a database would give us. Any ideas on how I can get this back? I'm setting the commenting preferences via embedded document javascript in each reviewed PDF currently. Perhaps I can set up the database connection similarly. The documentation for this process is astonishingly poor. I even found a few undocumented java classes in some sample code on the Acrobat Developers site.
But, you never know, the functionality may still be built into Acrobat, it's just not advertised on the UI. If you have a document created for shared review in Acrobat 7, try opening it in Acrobat 8 and see what happens.
