As I mentioned in my previous message, I haven't tried this feature because I don't use Word comments.

>From Word 2000, I just tried it with two versions of PDFMaker:

Acrobat 4.05: PDFMaker did not convert my test comments to PDF notes.

Acrobat 5.0: PDFMaker converted my test comments to PDF notes.

In both tests, the "how" was by selecting the "Comments -> Notes" option in PDFMaker.

If I hadn't had Acrobat 5.0 to check with, I'd have called or written Adobe tech support, mentioned that I was using 4.05, and asked if a later version solved the problem.
