[blindlaw] Reviewing Redlining in Adobe PDF Document

[James Fetter]

Is there any possibility of exporting the document to Word (Adobe Pro 
should retain formatting/redlining), doing whatever needs to be done, 
and saving again as a PDF? I recognize that this isn't the most graceful 
solution in the world, but I did this during my summer internship with 
some success. Just a thought.

A PDF is produced either converted or saved from some other kind of document, such as word, so you could request the original. The most common reason to use PDF's is so people can't change them.
