Printing multiple comments on one page

I have a 12 page document with only 1 or 2 comments per page. The "Print Comments Summary" function forces separate pages for each design page of comment. Any way to print the content of the summary viewer. Having only 1 comment on 12 sheets is a waste of space and paper.

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 8.1.2, Windows

Just a thought...
Share the PDF. Zero paper used.

Use JavaScript to create either a menu option or tool bar buttion to create the report you want. There is an example of creating a report by Author in the JavaScript Reference as an example of the "writeText()' method of the "Report" object.

Aggregating comments to support reduced paper use for hardcopy reports.

Create PDF of Comment Summary.
The resultant report's contents reflect a tabular layout.
In effect, a table. Use the Table Select tool to save each page's
"table" to a *.csv file.
Some minor manipulations, through your spreadsheet application,
will yield a file with the comments aggregated.
The resultant file, when printed to hardcopy, will have a reduced page count.

~save a tree... use the PDF file ~

Be well...
