9. Commenting<br />

© 2008 <strong>Nitro</strong> <strong>PDF</strong> Software<br />

Interactivity 55<br />

One of the biggest advantages of working with <strong>PDF</strong> is having the ability to annotate electronically in the<br />

same ways you can with paper. With <strong>Nitro</strong> <strong>PDF</strong> <strong>Professional</strong>, comments can be added to pages as sticky<br />

notes, text highlighting, drawing markups, stamps, and file attachments.<br />

Most types of comments include a pop-up note for you to add a text message to them. For example, if you’<br />

ve marked some text with the Highlight Text tool, just open its pop-up note and enter your feedback to<br />

explain why you’ve highlighted it. All commenting and drawing tools are accessible from the Review tab.<br />

· Sticky notes<br />

· Highlight, underline & cross-out text<br />

· Lines, arrows, rectangles, ovals. polygons and clouds<br />

· Stamps<br />

· File attachments<br />

· Organize and view comments<br />

9.1 Adding sticky notes<br />

Sticky notes are the quickest and easiest comments to add and work well because they stand out. Like the<br />

paper version, you place the note onto the page you would like to add a comment to and then enter your<br />

text feedback into it for others to read.<br />

To add a sticky note to a <strong>PDF</strong> document:<br />

1. On the Review tab, in the Comment group, click Sticky Note .<br />

2. Click on the page where you want to place the sticky note.<br />

To update the appearance or properties of a sticky note:<br />

1. Right-click on the sticky note icon.<br />

2. Click Properties.<br />

3. Click the options you want to change.<br />

4. Click OK.<br />

Tip: You can change the default properties of your comments by right clicking on a note and<br />

choosing the Set Properties as Default option.<br />

9.2 Adding Text Boxes<br />

The Text Box tool places a text box on top of the page content and unlike the Sticky Note (which can be<br />

opened and closed) it is always visible. Text Boxes can blend into the page content, so if you don’t want<br />

them to be missed, it’s worth making sure the color of the text box is different to the content on the page.<br />

Tip: When trying to edit the properties of a text box, you need to be aware that there are<br />

different states, and you can only open the Properties dialog from one state. When the cursor<br />

is flashing inside the text box, you must click outside of the text box and then right-click to<br />

bring up the menu that gives you access to the properties.
