Hi,
Is there a way in Acrobat 7, 8 or 9 to print only the pages that have comments on them without getting any connector lines or sequence numbers?
Ideally, I would like to get the exact same result as if I knew that there was a comment on a page and printed that page directly from the print window with selected.
I get quite a few pdfs with comments from clients and it is time consuming to look through each document to see which pages have comments on them. My QC department doesn't like the ways that Acrobat summarizes comments because it either puts the sequence numbers on top of text (obscuring part of the edits) or it gets too messy with the connector lines.
I've heard of someone writing a script to detect pages that contain comments and printing those pages, but I'm not a programmer. Is there a way to print only the pages with comments (without seq numbers or connector lines) directly from Acrobat or even through a plug-in?
I appreciate any help or advice you have.
This is a great idea for an automation script (we'll certainly add this to our To Do list for pdfscripting.com). You also say that you have to look through the whole document to locate what pages have comments, and there is a better way to see what pages have comments using the Comments panel. It's been a while since I've used Acrobat 7 but you can access it either through an icon on the left nav panel or from the Comments menu Show Comments List. Only pages with copmments are listed and they are numbered.
Hope this helps,
