The easiest way to find a Proof is to click the Open Proof button in the email notification you received when the Proof was made for review.

How to Make Comments

1. Open the Proof
2. At the top of the proofing viewer, click “Add comment,” located on the center top portion of the screen, and a markup toolbar will appear.
   
3. If it is a video Proof, play the video, then click “Add comment” at the point in the video where you want the comment using the playheads.
4. To draw attention to a specific location on the Proof, click the markup tool you want in the toolbar, then mark the area of the Proof that you wish to comment on:
   

   Tool Image		Tool Name	Tool Description
   		Draw a freehand line	Add a freehand line on the selected area.
   		Draw a line	Draw a line on the selected area.
   		Draw an arrow	Add an arrow to an area you select.
   		Highlight an area	Highlights the area you select.
   		Draw a rectangle	Draw a rectangle around an area.
   		Polyline	Draws a connected sequence of line segments you can leave open or close as a shape. You can move or delete any of the points you add.
   		Change markup color, thickness, or opacity	Changes the color, thickness, and opacity of the markup tools.
   		Text	This tool appears on the left of the other tools when the Proof is a text-based document. It provides markup tools for commenting on text in proofs. When you click this tool and select text on your Proof, annotation options appear beneath the selected text.

5. You can mark multiple areas on multiple pages for one comment in static proofs. For example, if you want to make the same comment on multiple pages, select a location on one page, then go to the next page where you want to make the same comment and select an area there. (This applies only to the regular annotation markup tools, not the text markup tools.
6. Type your comment in the Add comment box on the right.
7. To tag another user in your comment, type @ in the comment box, then type the user’s name or email address and select the user in the menu that appears.
8. To attach a file to a comment, do either of the following:
   • Click the paper clip icon in the lower-right corner of the comment, then find and select the file you want to upload.
   • Drag a file from a location on your computer and drop it into the comment area.
9. Click Post. You must click Post for the comment to save.
10. When you are done making comments, make a decision so the project can move on.
