Adding Notes

Adding a Note
When you are viewing content in PTC Arbortext Content Delivery, click on the note icon to associate a new note with that content:
Enter your note, formatting it as desired, and select whether the note should be private or public. Notes have no maximum length, but it is recommended they be no longer than four thousand characters. Those characters includes any characters needed for formatting markup.
