Howdy,

When you open a pdf file in Acrobat, you can see at the properties of  
the document whether is has commenting permissions. Files created  
using Latex are not allowed to be commented. If they were, Acrobat  
would have enabled an additional tool which can be used in order to  
add annotations to the pdf file. This is usually a very useful option  
for reviewing articles. My question is how can I allow the commenting  
option while creating a pdf file using Latex. Is there any package  
that can be used?
