Script to Batch Remove or Change Comment Identity (=Author)

$

Hi,

 

I have some PDF files from (supposedly) anonymous reviewers that have their (login) names showing up in the Acrobat comments.  In order to be really anonymous, each of the comment Author fields needs to be changed manually (to something like "Reviewer"), but there can be literally hundreds of comments per manuscript, so this gets pretty tedious.  So, I'm wondering if there is a way to create a menu item script that can be run on a document to either remove or change the comment Author name?  Any ideas on how to go about this with Acrobat scripting?

 

I know that there is a way for folks to change this before the start commenting, but most of our reviewers are not very computer adept, so asking them to run through the steps to do this may cause issues.  So a solution that can be run on my end would help immensely.

 

Anyway, I would appreciate any help folks can lend on such a script.

 

Cheers,

JWFetz
