I have a document created in Acrobat 6.0.6.1 which contains some comments. I need to send this to some lawyers whom I don't want removing or moving the comments I've placed in the document. I can lock the document for editing however when I try to print I am not allowed to Print with Comments.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

You could save a copy of your PDF and then flatten the comments using the PDF Optimizer (version 7 or later). Or, you could print the PDF to another PDF -- I don't recommend this though because you can lose a lot of other important information in the process.
