The following text is from the adobe site ( http://www.adobe.com/products/framemaker/features/?view=topnew) "Importing of comments from PDF files Easily gather and incorporate review comments from subject matter experts and other colleagues. Use the Track Text Edits feature and a new user interface to efficiently manage review processes." So it is possible according to the "new feature list".

Yes. I just went back and looked at the online video. They are calling it "PDF shared review," but there is not one word of mention of it in the FM9 user guide, nor of the File> Save as PDF (Send For Review) menu item in FM9. I can see in my existing Acrobat 9 Pro an option to Send for Shared Review, so it's clear that I can send a PDF for review, and get back the changes, but not clear if the standalone version of FM9 can import the changes directly into FM9-- or if that's a feature available only in the TCS version of FM9.

RE: New Adobe Technical Communication Suite 2 and newAdobeeLearningSuite
It can. I downloaded the FM9 demo and tested it last night. I opened my Appliance Guide book and all chapters and generated the PDF using the Save as PDF (Send for review)... Feature. Then I opened the PDF and made some various edits (deletions, insertions, sticky notes, and highlighting). Then in the Book file, I imported PDF comments. The insert/delete comments appeared as conditional text in different colors, and the two sticky notes appeared as markers. I do not see an MS Word-style "accept-reject comment" option, but it will still save a lot of time to have them all in place for me. john -Original Message- From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Lin Sims Sent: Thursday, January 22, 2009 1:05 PM To: Mike Wickham Cc: framers@lists.frameusers.com Subject: Re: New Adobe Technical Communication Suite 2 and newAdobeeLearningSuite On Wed, Jan 21, 2009 at 7:40 PM, Mike Wickham wrote: > Yes.
