How to accept PDFComments in InDesign through script

[Eyenan.]

Once imported the PDF comments in InDesign document then how to "Accept" it(PDFComments) in InDesign through the scripts.

[Manan Joshi]

Maybe something like the following

app.documents[0].pdfComents.everyItem().changeStatus(CommentStatusEnum.RESOLVED_STATUS)

P.S.:- I have not tested this

Thanks Manan.

The comment was resolved but not "Accepted"(Not applied on layout page).

I need to update on layout page also.

I've attached sample i/p and o/p FYR.

Then it seems this is not possible via scripting. I can't see any other property or method of interest that can be used. See the following

Maybe someone else will chime in with some insights.

Hi Eyenan and Manan,

that's my impression as well. There are some methods missing with pdfComments in InDesign.

If you are part of InDesign Prerelease you could follow and revive a discussion we had there some years ago when pdfComments were introduced with InDesign CC 2019.

Thanks Uwe for sharing information about the prerelease discussion. I will look into it but it seems if this has been brought to attention since so long without any redressal then it might languish a bit more.
