I think that's what I'll have to do, thoguh I'm not sure that the comments
themselves (as opposed to the highlighting) will show up in a PDF documen.

You are using Word 97 and can't have balloons showing comments, right?

Is there any way to extract comments from Word and print them as a separate
document?

Somewhere in the Print dialog should be something about Print What: Markup,
which I think prints just the markup, and maybe an option for Print What:
Document plus Markup. Play with those. I don't think they are a new
feature.

In my print dialog, it's under the MS Word settings, and I could easily set
Document Showing Markup and then send the print job to the PDF printer
instead, I think. But I'm using Word 2004 on a Mac, so it may be different
for you.

Alternatively, comments seem to be coded similarly to footnotes. It might be
possible to put the cursor in the Comment pane in Word 97 and select all and
copy (since it's possible with footnotes).
