Thanks Shlomo and Rick for the replies. We'll probably recommend that our customer use Reader X; we don't want to spend a lot of money just for one customer.

Enabling PDFs for full commenting in an automated is possible with Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions (costly; you will not be able to find a price in Adobe's web site) Shlomo Perets MicroType, http://www.microtype.com FrameMaker/TCS training & consulting * FM-to-Acrobat TimeSavers/Assistants _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to framers as arch...@mail-archive.com.
