How this retirement will affect Shared review users?

Hi there,

Thanks for your question. Workspaces will no longer be available as a distribution option for PDF files in a Shared Review (although you can still initiate Shared Reviews using an internal server, such as a SharePoint workspace, a network folder, or a web server folder).

While Workspaces will no longer be available for posting those PDF files, Acrobat.com (http://files.acrobat.com) is an excellent alternative for uploading your files. You can make your uploaded files public, and share the file's unique URL with reviewers. For more information about uploading and sharing files with Acrobat.com, please see: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat-com/help/files.html

Please let us know if you need any clarification or further assistance.

Best regards,

Rebecca

Hi Kriss,  The option to use "Adobe online services" for collecting comments in a Shared Review will no longer be available, that's correct.  Best, Rebecca

Could you please indicate how SharePoint is to be used for this purpose?

The current Acrobat Shared Review generates both local and cloud copies of

the review document and sends an email with the link.  How is this

functionality to be implemented with SharePoint?

Take a look at http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/preparing-pdf-review.html#choosing_a_distribution_opt ion_for_reviews_and_forms

The section of interest is under Internal Server.

Hope this helps!

I was using Adobe online services for shared reviews until a couple of days ago without problems. There was a maintenance of Adobe serves yesterday so I hosted a shared review file on our company server. Now when I try to do a shared review, the Adobe online servies option is completely gone even though the maintenance is completed. My colleague can still send share reviews using Adobe online servies though. Why is that?

For Acrobat XI, X and 9 users, when you select “Send for Shared Review” in your Acrobat software, the option to download and track comments with Adobe online services will no longer be available. You will still be able to initiate Shared Reviews from within Acrobat using your own internal server – such as a SharePoint workspace, a network folder, or a web server folder – to collect comments.

I suspect that you and your colleague are running different versions of Acrobat. The ability to use Acrobat.com Workspaces for Shared Reviews was removed as of the most recent update to Acrobat.

Hi Bob,

My colleague is using Acrobat XI, we upgraded together but she is still sending shared reviews using Workspaces.

Please check the versions of Acrobat (from the About Acrobat dialog) that you and your colleague are running. The option for using Acrobat.com Workspaces has been phased out with the latest update -- 11.0.07.
