Batch PDF processing for enabling commenting in acrobat reader

There is scripting functionality in Acrobat X that allows this. Check out
the docs that came with your software. You can also find out how to do such
scripting in:

How to do everything. Adobe Acrobat X  by Doug Sahlin (available at my local
library)

 

It all done in the Action Wizard section of the Tools tab on the top right
side of the Acrobat X interface. Such actions can be done on open files,
folders or a selection of files. A number of prefab actions are there, but
you can modify them or make your own. Fiddling around in there for a couple
of minutes should get you a usable script.

 

Good Luck,

Hi all,

I have TCS 3.5. I am using FrameMaker 10 and Adobe Acrobat Pro X. When I
publish my documentation, I would like people to review the PDFs by putting
comments in acrobat reader. To do this, I have to go into each PDF and
select File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF >  Enable Commenting and
Measuring.  Is there any way to turn this into a batch process that will
automatically convert all the PDFs in a single folder?

Thanks,
Joseph Lorenzini
