Yes, it's at: http://www.microtype.com/resources/articles/DocNotesWhitePaper.pdf

If the changes have be indicated in the new PDF (eg "New/Changed"), another way of handling this is through custom markers in conjunction with FM-to-Acrobat TimeSavers (using the 'Quick-Access Bookmarks' feature). See a sample file at:

(a zip file containing the .pdf and the source. fm file is available for download through
