How to Enable Commenting in Adobe Acrobat Professional

Acrobat Professional is a paid software program from Adobe for creating and editing files saved in Portable Document Format (PDF). Once PDF files are created using Acrobat Professional, they can be viewed and printed by users with a free program called Adobe Reader. By default, users of Adobe Reader do not have the ability to add comments to PDF files. However, the creator of the PDF document can enable commenting for users of Adobe Reader. This feature is ideal for users wanting to create PDF files for review by users without access to Acrobat Professional.

  1. Launch Adobe Acrobat Professional and open the document that needs to have commenting enabled.
  2. Step 2

    Click “Document” in the menu bar and select “Enable for Commenting and Analysis in Adobe Reader” from the drop-down menu.

  3. Step 3

    Click “OK” in the dialog box warning that opens indicating file editing is restricted once commenting is enabled. These restrictions include editing page content, adding links and changing order of pages. If you do not want this warning to open every time you enable commenting for a file, check the “Don’t show again” check box.

  4. Step 4

    Save the file using a new file name and location for distribution to users that need to add comments using Adobe Reader.

Tips & Warnings
  • The next time you attempt to edit a PDF file with commenting enabled, a pop-up window opens allowing you to create a copy of the file with commenting disabled. Creating a copy of the file with commenting disabled allows the file to be edited using Adobe Acrobat.
