Hi Deanna First, they released Acrobat XI today or yesterday, so you'll likely be doing your work with XI instead of X.
Next, you'll need Acrobat Pro on the machine producing the PDF, and from there you can initiate reviews with your team using anything from Reader (9 or above) to Acrobat Pro (9 or above). If I recall correctly, this has been true since Acrobat 5 or so. I have successfully run reviews with this setup and then migrated comments back into the FM document (FM 10 and 11) with the supplied workflow, which is a fraction of the effort required to manually apply changes to the original FM document. -Matt @mattrsullivan On Oct 17, 2012, at 11:47 AM, Deanna Korth <deanna.korth at gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > We are migrating from FrameMaker 7.2 to FrameMaker 11.
