i went down the same road and eventually gave up, paid for PDF
studio from qoppa.com, and have been happy ever since. i do exactly
what you do -- exchange annotated files for the purpose of
proofreading/editing, and no one i've ever exchanged with has ever
complained.
i have no financial interest in PDF studio, i just gave up trying to
find an OSS solution that didn't suck.
