What do you mean by "not working"? Is the document not reader extended?

Have you tried to open the reader extended document using Adobe Reader and tried to add an annotation/comment?

Aditya,

How is this PDF created? Is it using Adobe LiveCycle Designer? If yes, which version of Designer are you using?

Which version of Acrobat are you using to Reader Extend the PDF?

Do you intend to use LiveCycle server or do you just use LiveCycle Designer?

Aditya,

Are these two different documents? when you say old version is working fine what is the difference between these two PDFs?

if possible can you attach the file that you have problem in reader extending ? (You need to click use advance editor to see the file upload icon)

Santosh,

          Really thanks for your consideration.

          Yes , i found the reason, the difference only is Old version is static pdf form and i also found that a no. of event are not working in this due to static functionality, which are passing very fine in Dynamic form.

But question is still there.Is Dynamic form(Xfa based) does not show Commenting & Measuring  functionality???

Commenting isn't supported in XFA forms.
