Chris,

Create a PDF with change bars and also another without change bars, but identical in every other way.

Open both PDF files in Acrobat 5. Move focus to the file without changebars and then select the Tools > Compare > Two Documents menu item. In the Compare Documents dialog box, the file sans change bars should be in the upper file select field, and the one with change bars in the lower field. For the type of comparison, go with Page by page visual differences, low sensitivity.

You will get a PDF file with two extraneous pages, then on page 3 the first page that differs between the files, without change bars. Page 4 will be the same page with the change bars. You get one page from each file for each page with a change bar. Save this file as something like test.pdf.

You will probably have extraneous comments all over the test.pdf file. Remove these with the Tools > PDF Consultant > Detect and Remove menu item. Just remove all comments. To get your print-out, print from Acrobat, using the Print Even Pages only option in the Print dialog.
