What he is trying to explain is: if you want annotations to be allowed, then you must save your form as a "Adobe Static PDF form" in LiveCycle and then enable it in Accrobat pro or reader extensions. Once you do, then the dynamic properties of the form will no longer work, like buttons or subforms opening and closing. It basically becomes just like a form that you created in Word and converted it to a PDF. The first image below is a dynamic PDF with the button functioning and the new section opening onclick. But no comments are allowed on this type of PDF, The 2nd PDF below is saved as a "Static PDF" and you can see that I was able to use the annotations markup but my button wouldn't function to open the new section. It's an either or situation I'm afraid. I got around this problem by saving the document once as a dynamic so that it functioned the way I designed it and a second copy as a Static PDF. This way my fellow employees had the ability to make comments and suggestions, apply sticky notes, underline text, cross out text, attach other documents and even insert recorded audio for meeting notes and such if they were required. There is no reason that you can't find a way to make these forms serve your purpose. You just have to get creative.
