Hi
I used LibO 3.3 to produce a PDF file on windows 7. Opening the PDF using
Acrobat X on windows 7 and you are able to use both highlights and comments.
The review parts also seem enabled.
Highlights and comments definitely save. It maybe that this is possible
already without Acrobat Pro.

Gary is correct on this point.
As for doing that, Gary states elsewhere that it's a quick and easy
process for anyone who has Acrobat Pro. That is also correct.
I would put this in the bucket of "if Gary (or some other member of the
team who already has Acrobat Pro) wants to do this step for each of our
PDFs, then let them do it" -- except for the following reservations:
* If someone starts doing this, users will have an expectation that all
the LO user guide PDFs will have this functionality.
* If only 1 or 2 people are doing this, it puts them on the critical
path for publishing PDFs that meet the expectations mentioned above and
could cause a bottleneck, especially if the person were unavailable for
any reason.
BTW, I have Acrobat Pro, but I am not offering to do what Gary suggests
because it is on a (Windows) machine that I rarely turn on, so setting
the Review and Comment switch on a PDF is a much more time-consuming
effort which I might do only once a week, if that often.

Did use any settings other than default ones when saved the pdf? If so,
please advise because this may be a good tip to tell people. If you can
produce a pdf file with virtually all the functionality a user would
need why would you use Adobe not save the money? I would use the less
expensive option that is available.
Saving a vanilla PDF with Acrobat Pro will not impart any Commenting and
Analysis functionality until after that function is first enabled
through the Comment menu in Acrobat Pro. Then, saving such an enabled
PDF will make that PDF able to be commented, etc. on by a user with
Adobe Reader.
