Send PDF comment status from InDesign back to originating PDF
I love and successfully use the Import PDF Comments function in InDesign. I work through them in ID and Accept and Mark Resolved them in the PDF Comments panel. But…
Feature request: please give us the option to send the comment status from the ID PDF Comments panel back to the originating PDF. Our workflow continues to use that original PDF for comparison with the new PDF to cross-check that the alterations were made. We don't necessarily want to turn our editors loose in our InDesign files thereby introducing the chance for unintended and unnoticed changes. Thank you. ~Signed, the designer who's in charge of maintaining a high-quality production file

My thoughts exactly, It is an important part of our workflow to check of comments and edits when they are done. I absolutely LOVE the pdf comment import and now it is working a better it has greatly improved out workflow. But one thing i have noticed is that i can accept and resolve comments in INDD but when i delete comments and re-import them they are no longer accepted or resolved, nor are they checked in the pdf. Like Kelly mentioned above it is ideal if the marked comments are saved as such.
