Viewing to-dos and markup using the PageProof plugin for Adobe InDesign

There are two reasons why you may not be seeing comments marked as to-do using the PageProof plugin for Adobe InDesign.

Reason 1

The proof hasn’t been returned with a to-do list yet, or there are no comments marked as to-do.

The proof must have to-dos marked and have been returned to the proof owner/editor with a to-do list for the proof to be in the dashboard inbox of the proof owner/editor. By default, the plugin shows comments that are marked as to-do.

  • If you do not see the proof in the inbox, use the proof search at the top of the plugin to search for the proof.

  • After selecting the proof, if no comments are marked as to-do (the default filter), click the drop-down filter for comment status to select all comments.

Filter the comment status to search for all comments.

Reason 2

If you are viewing the InDesign artwork in preview mode, the pins will not be visible since they are non-printing items. Preview mode will only show printable items.

  • To turn off preview mode, in Adobe InDesign go to view -> screen mode and select normal.
