Any idea how to convert Bookmarks to Comments?

Question

Before I realized that I wanted to comment on several items I have called out in Illustrator, I bookmarked all 60 items that I wanted to highlight or focus on. Now I realize that I really wanted to add comments. Is there any easy way to convert Bookmarks to Comments so that I can add the correct value to each form field I have bookmarked.

Ideally, I would have a custom comment form that would contain the Field Name, the Correct Contents, and a Link to the Resource used to justify the change.

Is there anything like this possible?

There's no easy way to do that. You would need a custom-made script, and it would be limited in what it can do.

You could have it generate a sticky note at the top of the page the bookmark points to, but that's about it. It won't be able to add a comment to the text you selected originally, unless that page is unique on the page. I also don't follow what you mean by "Field Name, the Correct Contents, and a Link to the Resource used to justify the change"... Is this information available in the bookmark? If so, where?

In short, not a simple task at all.
