ADOBE ACROBAT 3D VERSION 8 156 User Guide Select an email application for reviews You need an email application and a mail server connection to send a PDF for review and to send comments. Acrobat supports most email applications. If more than one email application is installed on your system, Acrobat might not start the preferred application when it sends a PDF as an attachment. To specify which application starts, do one of the following: • (Windows) Double-click Internet Options in the Control Panel. In the Internet Properties dialog box, select the Programs tab, and then select the preferred email application. Restart Acrobat for the changes to take effect. • (Windows) Change the MAPI settings in your email application. Adobe Reader uses the Messaging Application Program Interface (MAPI) to communicate with your email application. Most email applications come with MAPI settings to handle this communication. For more information on configuring your email applications, see the email application's Help. • (Mac OS) In Mail, choose Mail > Preferences, select General, and then choose the preferred email application from the Default Email Reader menu. Restart Acrobat for the changes to take effect. If your application isn't listed, choose Select from the menu and browse to the location. If you select an application that isn't listed in the Default Email Reader menu, Acrobat may not support it. After you verify that Acrobat works with your email application, you can initiate a review. Specify a server for comments You must specify a server location to store all the comments that are submitted during a shared review or a browserbased review. This server location is referred to as the comment server (also called a comments repository). Reviewers must have read and write access to the comment server you specify. Ask your network administrator to provide a suitable server location for storing comments. No additional software is required to set up a comment server. For a shared review, you can specify a network folder, a WebDAV server, or a Windows server running Microsoft SharePoint Services. If all reviewers are within a local area network, network folders and SharePoint servers are the best choices for a comment server-network folders being the cheapest and most reliable. To initiate a review on a SharePoint server, the initiator must use Windows; however, reviewers can use either Windows or Mac OS. All participants must have read and write access to the Document Library folder within the specified workspace. WebDAV servers (web servers that use the WebDAV protocol) are best used only if you have reviewers that are outside of a firewall or local area network. For a browser-based review, you can specify either a network folder or a WebDAV server. If you use a network folder, comments may not be viewable to reviewers on both platforms. Even if all reviewers use the same platform, they may not see comments if they access the server location as a mapped drive instead of by its full file path. If you use a WebDAV server, make sure that all reviewers have unique login names that aren't differentiated solely by case.
