Using the PDF Comments and Replies Feature

Prerequisite: To apply comments and replies on PDF documents, the user must be editing the document within the eShare portal, the document must not contain any fillable forms/fields, and only one person can edit the document at a time.

Start by creating a Trusted Share with the desired recipients, then navigate to the share and open a PDF document.

2. Use the PDF Comments and Replies Feature

Once the document opens, locate the toolbar at the top of the file. Select Comments on the top right, then click a location in the document where you want to place the comment.

3. Create Comments

A comment window appears on the right side of the screen. Enter text in the field labeled Add your comment. You can format your text using the options displayed above the field. After entering text, click the blue arrow to post the comment.

4. Reply to Others’ Comments

You can also reply to other recipient’s comments on the PDF. Click the comment you want to reply to.

5. Post the Reply

In the opened comment thread, enter your reply in Add your comment box… and click the blue arrow to post it.

6. Save the Document

After adding comments/replies, click Save in the top toolbar to save changes. Once the document is saved, close it so other collaborators can add their own comments and replies.
