selectively disabling printing of comment.

I want to add a note of instruction to a pdf, but I need to disable it so that it will not print, even if the user opts to print with markup. Can this be done?

Re: selectively disabling printing of comment.

Sure,  You can set the display property on the note to "Visible, but no print".  This is done in JavaScript.  Look in the Acrobat JavaScript Reference at the Annot object.  You can even do this at print time with the document's "WillPrint" event.
