Adding an external reviewer

After you share a project, you can add an external reviewer that is not on the Available Users list. An external reviewer can be anyone you want to review project. They do not need to be existing Lectora Online users. Reviewers are granted free access to Lectora Online but are limited to adding notes within a project, reviewing notes others have added to the project, and previewing published pages. You can also specify when each reviewer's access to the project should be revoked.

Reviewers that you add will receive an email with instructions and temporary credentials to log on and get started. You can edit the email sent to a reviewer by clicking the Customize Email graphic located on the reviewer's entry in the Team Members box. For details, see Customizing the reviewer notification email.
