generate pdf with comments enabled?

2006-06-02 Thread Neal Becker
Is there some way to generate pdf that has review comments enabled?  Using
lyx with pdflatex (This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C
7.5.4)) the generated pdf does not have review comments enabled.

If you mean can you generate a PDF that allows the reader to add 
comments, the answer is 'no'.  Currently, the only way to do that is to 
inhale the PDF into Acrobat Pro and set that permission.  There are 
various open-source utilities that will let you set the permission, and 
it's possible that other open-source readers might accept that, but 
Acrobat Reader will not allow commenting, even if the commenting 
permission flag is set, unless the file has been digitally signed by 
Acrobat Pro.
