Reviewers can add comments directly in the shared PDF, and you will see their feedback in real time within Acrobat.
This runs in the Acrobat app - there is no separate API for this task.
The main benefit of 'Share for Review' is that it automatically combines all comments into one file. If you email PDFs, you have to manually put all the feedback together from many different documents. This feature saves a lot of time and prevents mistakes from missing comments. It makes the review process much smoother and more efficient for everyone involved.
When you share a PDF for review, Acrobat helps you track who has commented. You can go to the 'Shared by you' section in Acrobat. This area shows you the status of your shared documents and who has responded. You will also get notifications when reviewers add their comments.
Reviewers must sign in to comment on a shared PDF so that Acrobat can correctly link their comments to their identity. This helps you track who said what, which is important for understanding feedback and making decisions. Signing in also ensures that only authorized people can add comments, keeping your review process secure and organized.
| Feature | Public Link | Named People |
|---|---|---|
| Access | Anyone with the link can view and comment. | Only specific individuals you invite can view and comment. |
| Control | Less control over who sees the document. | More control, as access is restricted to chosen reviewers. |
| Security | Lower security, as the link can be shared widely. | Higher security, as access requires a specific invitation and sign-in. |
| Use Case | Good for wide feedback from a large, less defined group. | Best for targeted feedback from a known, trusted team. |
