Overriding Adobe Preference of showing comments pane when a PDF with comments is opened
We need a way to automatically hide the Comments pane that pops up on the right-hand side of a PDF with comments without asking users to manually change their Adobe preferences.
I create PDF deliverables for a living and there have been situations where a client wants me to embed documents in a PDF via the Comment Tool, but they don't want the Comment pane to open when their employees or customers open the PDF.
I have attached a screenshot of the Adobe Preference window. The preferences outlined in red are the ones that control the Comment pane pop-up. I want the ability to lock these preferences so that even if a user has these preferences enabled on their machines, the PDF I provide them overrides their preferences.
