Step-by-step procedure

To review a file in the PDF Review Module

  1. Click the URL you received via email. Example: http://<IP address>/?file=00022PDFReviewModule16096.pdf The PDF is displayed in an HTML5 browser, the PDF Review Module user interface.
    Note: The first time you're using the PDF Review Module in a particular browser, you'll be informed that cookies are used to save your personal preferences, such as your language choice. Note that we do not store any personal details. Click I understand to continue.
  2. Inspect the file as required. You can inspect the document, page and object properties as required. For an overview of the options, refer to UI & Functionality - Overview. Note that is not possible to edit the file.
  3. Optionally add your comments using the Add comments tool. For the full procedure, refer to Adding, editing and removing comments.
    Note: You cannot save intermediate results. If you add comments, you should approve or reject the file in the same session, otherwise your comments will be lost.
  4. Click the Approval tab in the top right corner and click the button of your choice.
  5. Confirm your choice. Once you have clicked one of the buttons, you will be redirected to the website of the sender of the PDF. If you would try to open the file once more using the URL you received via email, you would notice that it is not possible anymore. As a consequence, it is not possible to send additional remarks afterwards.
