I replied to all comments, now I need to show as text box.

There was an error rendering this rich post.

So, I went through my 165 page PDF and replied to all the comments but using the right click → Reply option.
Now, due to limitations with the original creator of the comments, I actually need to have them show as a text box next to the original comment.

How do I convert the reply to comments into text boxes next to the original markup?

To clarify, you are trying to show the reply as text directly on the sheet, right?

@Carina (one of our favorite members) asked a similar question a while back. See if this helps…

Yes, sorry i should have explained that better.

My "work around"

expand the markup window
in the sheet, left click the original comment
in the markup window, right click on the reply under the selected OG comment
click "copy [comment]"
in the sheet, ctrl + V paste.

I was just hoping for something easy and perhaps automated.

Yeah i read and tried that.. no luck. also; it looks like it only would show up when you print it thus losing any functionality of formatting, location, size, etc..
