How to print student submissions to include annotations, annotated comments and feedback left in sidebar comments field:

Open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat, go to File and select Print to preview the document
- In the print settings window that comes up, go to Comments & Forms at right
- check that Document and Markups is showing in the drop-down menu and click on the Summarize Comments button,

- "Do you want to include the text of summarized comments in the document being printed?"
- Click on the Yes button
- Allow Adobe Acrobat a minute or so to process this request
- After the request has processed, you should see there are additional pages to print (the comments are printed on separate pages following the original submission)
