Setting Reviewing preferences for browser-based reviews
Before you set up a browser-based review, you must specify the location where the review
comments are stored. This location is called the comments repository. You can use a
network folder, database, WebDAV, or web discussions server to store comments. If your
organization subscribes to automatic configuration services, these services configure the
comments repository automatically in the Reviewing preferences and in the setup wizard.
Contact the network administrator for details about the server type and path of shared
servers in your organization. For more information about automatic configuration
services, see Acrobat Online Collaboration: Setup and Administration on the Adobe
website at http://partners.adobe.com/links/acrobat (English only).
When you specify the comments repository correctly in Reviewing preferences, comments
upload automatically each time reviewers click the Send And Receive button in the
Commenting toolbar. You don't need to change your Reviewing preferences for
subsequent reviews unless the server information changes.
To change Reviewing preferences:
1. Choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Acrobat > Preferences (Mac OS), and select
Reviewing.
2. From the Server Type menu, select the type of server you're using to store the FDF file
that contains browser-based review comments, and then specify the corresponding server
settings. Ask your system administrator for the specifics about your server type and
settings.
Enter the appropriate settings for server type that you select:
● Custom. Type the settings provided by your administrator.
● Database. Type the appropriate path in the box.
● Network Folder. Click Browse (Windows) or Choose (Mac OS) to select a network folder.
● WebDAV. Type the web address (for example, http://) in the box.
● Web Discussion Server.
Note: To use a web discussion server as a comments repository, reviewers must configure
the web discussion server in Internet Explorer and install Microsoft Office 2000 or later.
3. To make sure that your How To window displays the appropriate topic as part of your
review cycle, select Reset Automatic How To Pages, and then click OK.
