Annotations on the document

Annotations are not permanent on a PDF document; they are a part of your file, but can be removed from the document. It is recommended that you use annotations when the comment needs to be part of the permanent file.
Before printing the document to paper, determine whether annotations are desired on the paper copy. Comments and annotations can be filtered out of the print job.

Store review and permanent notes

With FirmFlow, the notes tab may be used to store review and permanent notes. These notes can be maintained and marked as closed. When the workflow is routed to the completed step, it is recommended to have the Review Notes automatically deleted by GoFileRoom.
If you are not using FirmFlow, it is recommended to use a Word document to store review and permanent notes.

Remove review and permanent notes

If you are using FirmFlow, notes can be manually deleted from the notes tab by users with delete privileges, or FirmFlow may be configured to delete them automatically when the Workflow is marked completed or rolled forward.
If you are not using FirmFlow, the Word document (containing review and permanent notes) can be deleted upon completion of a Tax Return.

Turn off annotations when printing

Yes, before selecting print, set the properties of the print dialogue box to only print the document. Annotations can be turned on or off during printing from the dropdown list in the print dialog box.
