That feature is an extension to the PDF language that is currently proprietary to Adobe.

that said, there is nothing preventing you from looking inside the PDFs that are created with this feature and finding common elements that could be checked for using the low level APIs of iText.

Acrobat Pro has this nifty new feature in version 8 where you can setup a “Shared Review” where comments posted on a PDF are stored at a central location as an RSS feed, and Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Reader can gather all the comments made on the PDF and also publish them as well.



Unfortunately, Adobe doesn’t have a whole lot of documentation describing the fine details of how this is implemented, but, from what it looks like, all the information on where the comments are located are written on the PDF itself. That way you can send the PDF anywhere you want and it knows exactly where to look for the comments.



I’d like to find out whether or not a particular PDF is setup for a Shared Review programmatically, but I haven’t come across any success. I was wondering… Does iText have any support for detecting whether or not a PDF has been setup in this manor?



I couldn’t find an easy answer searching through iText documentation or playing around with the PDF objects in iText. :/



Thanks ^_^
