Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-4199:
-----------------------------------------
I assume you are asking why the caret doesn't appear with Adobe Reader.
Re your code: AnnotationType.Pdf doesn't exist. I used "StrikeOutTextEdit" and
"Replace" instead. These constants seem to be secret, I can't find them in the
PDF specification.
By comparing the two files and playing around, I got the caret to appear (in
Adobe Reader) by removing the line
{{caretAnnotation.setInReplyTo(noteToReplaceText);}}.
In the original file, the relationship is different: the StrikeOut annotation
has an IRT to the caret annotation. In your code it is the caret annotation
that has an IRT to the StrikeOut annotation.
So I used {{noteToReplaceText.setInReplyTo(caretAnnotation);}} and it worked.
Did my answer solve your problem?
> Unable to create "Note to Replace Text" annotation into pdf.
