Nitro Pro 7 enables you to quickly summarize all of the comments contained in your PDF documents. Summarizing comments allows you to view all of the comments alongside the contents of the document. When comments are summarized, each comment is displayed as a callout alongside the original PDF page, allowing you to quickly view the contents of each comment side-by-side with the original document. Each callout is also assigned an ID, and an accompanying summary table lists each comment by ID, along with the contents and other details of the comment. This makes it very convenient to view all of the comments at once, as well as flip back and forth between pages of the document to view comments individually. You can choose whether to summarize comments for viewing onscreen (as PDF) or on paper. You can also customize how you would like the summarized comments to display and print in the Summarize Comments Settings or via Preferences.
