Related request (I think) -- I'd just like to be able to turn on the "Comment and Markup" toolbar in Adobe Reader for Linux, without having to beg my editors with the full up Acrobat for help. Does anyone know how to do that? It makes life a lot easier for documentation to be able to mark up a PDF with cross-outs, replacements, insertions, etc. Thanks, Mike _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
