Allan In addition to the helpful tips you have already received, one other thing you might try is looking for an option to "Print Comments", or anything like that. Recent versions of Acrobat allow the addition of notes, but I believe that they don't print unless you have activated printing of comments. The large note you describe may well fall into this category. regards Graeme Worth ************************************************** To post a message to austechwriter, send the message to austechwriter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe to austechwriter, send a message to austechwriter-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with "subscribe" in the Subject field.
