How to Add Markups and Comments - Multiple Users for Collaboration
Builders, Subcontractors, Consultants and Clients can all discuss and work on one drawing at the same time where ever they are. Each user can open, read, mark up and share multiple PDF documents for review.
1. Email Link for Markups and Comments
Each recipient will receive an email with a link to review the documents.
2. Add Comments and Annotations
1. Click on the document name to open the document viewer
2. Each document will have the name of recipients listed under its heading,
3. Use the markup tools to add comments and annotation
4. When you have finished click Submit Comments.
Each markup will be autosaved as a draft. Draft comments are only visible to your colleagues who have access to the project as long as inbox email is turned on for collaboration
Each markup you add will be time-stamped and detailed as a list on the right panel, click on the text box to close the comments panel
Submit Comments will create an email and all parties on the list can now view markups and comments you have added
You can return to email anytime by clicking on the email icon (envelope situated on the top left)
All comments will now remain as a digital footprint for that drawing and can be accessed anytime. This is critical as if there was ever a dispute or defects noted, you can always look back and see a history of discussion, markups that were submitted and who had approved it.
3. Document Review
As each recipient adds and submits comments, it will sync together and all parties' markups on the list will be visible.
1. Each document will have a text box and a number to indicate the number of markups submitted
2. You can navigate between documents by clicking on the arrow icon
3. You can view all comments and annotations made by each recipient simply by clicking on the checkbox next to the file name, all submitted markups will be displayed
4. If you would like to see markups made by only one or selected recipients, simply select or deselect an individual recipient by clicking on the checkbox next to their name
4. Print Markup and Comments
1. Click on the document name to open the document viewer
2. If you would like to include all comments click on checkbox next to the file name. Alternatively select individual recipient markup by clicking on the checkbox next to their name
