New feature that automatically adds comments

There is a new 'feature' on version 5.0.25 that TTC automatically adds a comment every time a user uses the page signoff. This is a poor addition. For every page, we now have two meaningless comments. When I see a note on a page, we use it to mean something important, not a note that someone signed off on a page yesterday and then another note that someone reviewed the page today. Please remove this feature ASAP. It doesn't add any value and, instead, detracts from the use of notes.

    We certainly understand how this new feature can be a bit distracting. Luckily, there is a setting in Adobe that will remove this comment box from your view. Follow these steps:

    1. Locate the Preferences menu. 
    2. Open the Commenting section. 
    3. Uncheck 'Ensure that pop-ups are visible as the document is scrolled.

  • Alyse, I tried that and the comments still show on the comments toolbar to the right when it opens. And it also appears on the Review Sign Offs feature making it look like my staff left a comment on every single page. How do we know which comments are from staff that I need to review and which are added by TTC automatically? I just don't see any value in this added "feature". Why not roll it back?

  • Making this modification in Acrobat has not solved the problem for me either.

  • Hello Steve and Brent, 

    I may suggest you push our new update for TTC (5.0.27), which no longer has the comment pop up box. We have temporarily removed this due to performance issues it was causing. We do plan to re implement it as an optional setting in a future release.
