This will help me to assist further!

    Hey Lucy Shine Strong , sorry to jump in here, but when you say the comments are inside the PDF, I'm assuming that your mentor is adding their comments through a 3rd party app and not directly on the Dropbox website - is that correct?

        Can they see their comments from their end on our website Lucy Shine Strong  ?
