How to Comment on PDF Documents on Server

4.6 out of 5
29 votes

In a directory named "proofs," there are four PDF documents with multiple comments. One particular document has 54 comments, while the others likely have over 100 comments each. Using the 2015 release of docHub, the goal is to merge the 96 comments from one document with the 54 comments from another, totaling around 150 comments. The objective is to keep track of the authors of each comment. To achieve this, one document will be closed, and the comments menu accessed through tools and comment in docHub.
