[blindlaw] Reviewing Redlining in Adobe PDF Document

[Luis Mendez]

Good morning Tai:

Looks like we are in for another interesting discussion.   If you have
OmniPage Ultimate and/or Nuance Power PDF 2.0 available you could try
converting the document from PDF to Word.  The tracked changes made by
others should be preserved.  You can then make your proposed changes and
reconvert the resulting document back to PDF.  You could run into a problem
if the document is password protected.  If nothing else works, it's time for
a reliable and trusted reader.

Luis

The challenge is that my firm requires all documents to be sent out in PDF
format to ensure that no metadata or tracked changes are transmitted. When I
send a pdf to a colleague at another firm, they are expected to mark it up
in PDF format.

While I have never seen such a thing, I would imagine it would be difficult,
at best. A document never originates as a PDF.  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.
