TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Note that the reviewers can use Acrobat Reader, provided you enable
commenting in Acrobat Pro (Comments > Enable for Commenting and
Analysis in Adobe Reader).

Some formatting can be difficult to convey also. This reviewer also commented on how they liked Word commenting because you could get a fnal copy view that is much easier to read than Acrobat's comments list and markup symbols.
