Export Comments in Altium
Altium makes it easy to export the whole comment history as a PDF file for historical, legal, or auditing purposes.
You can export comment history from Altium Designer and from the web interface.
From within a schematic in Altium Designer, select Reports > Export Comments from the Top Menu. A dialog box called Comment Export Configuration will open. Click on Export and save the PDF file.

You can also define an Output Job to combine a new report each time you perform a Release. In the left side panel, select Settings > Output Files > Assembly.OutJob. Output Job files will appear in the Projects panel under the Settings\Output Job Files sub-folder when added to a project.

Comments are compiled and exported to a PDF file. As a result, you will see the list of comments when you open the PDF file, as well as the design snapshots if you selected them.
Entire design snapshots: it takes the entire design snapshot followed by the list of comments. This option exports the comments and snapshot on separate pages of the PDF:

Original design screenshots: It takes a screenshot for each comment attached to a specific pinned location or region in the design and you can see how the design looked when the comment was made.
