Share for review – comments no longer within working file

Really like the new Share for Review feature in Illustrator 2023, however it appears comments submitted within the reviewed PDF no longer appear in the working file once the file is reopened. It worked great yesterday however upon reopening the working file today I'm forced to create and share a new review link.

 

Is there a way to refresh the link within the working file so I'm able to see comments that were previously submitted?

Hi - are you still experiencing this?  I just tried this in Illustrator and I see the comments flowing back in. One thing to check, in the commenting panel make sure you've selected the review to see the comments associated with the review vs. the comments on the working file itself.

Hi @ToddHec, sorry for delayed response. Somewhat still experiencing. The document isn't Cloud shared so the only incoming comments are by link only. My issue is the connection between the working file and the review link appears to become lost, and so rather than seeing previous comments I need to create a new review link entirely.

you definitely should not have to create a new link every time you want to share updated versions of the document. Is the file you are working with a cloud document (Stored in 'your files) when you are in the .ai home screen? or is it a local .ai file on your hard disk?

Have you gone through all of this and checked if there is something that will resolve your issue?
