When I display my pdf in IE7, I am missing tools (ie. commenting, stamp, etc.)and they will not appear unless I view the PDF on its own not in IE. I have Acrobat 8 standard. Can anyone help?

Hi.

You aren't able to see the tools in IE as the file isn't enabled for use in Adobe Reader, which is shown in IE's browser window.

Acrobat 8 Professional offers a method for extending the capabilities of a file for using commenting, drawing, and signature tools in the file in Reader. You can't enable the file using Standard, I'm afraid.
