------------------------------------------------------------------

I've tried solving this one a few times over the years and failed. Yesterday 
while playing around and trying all sort of modifications, I added 
{{graphics.translate(-30, 0);}} just before 
{{super.showAnnotation(annotation);}} and the annotation appeared, but in the 
"wrong" rotation, despite that we did apply a rotation transformation to the 
graphics device. This pointed me to transparency groups, where we render into a 
BufferedImage.

So at this time there are two workarounds that make this work but are 
unsatisfying: 1) ignoring the /Group attribute everywhere 2) recreate the /AP 
ourself before rendering.

I suspect that a real solution would be to apply another rotation somewhere in 
{{{}PDFStreamEngine.processAnnotation(){}}}, but that method is very dangerous 
to change and we have only 3 test cases.

>             Project: PDFBox
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Rendering
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.18
>            Reporter: Christian Appl
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: Annotations, PDFBox, PageDrawer
>         Attachments: screenshot-1.png, simple.pdf
>
>
> Unrotatable Annotations are no longer rendered by the PageDrawer.
> The issue can be reproduced using the attached "simple.pdf" and the following 
> code:
> {code:java}
> public static void main(String... args) {
>         File pdfFile = new File("pathto", "simple.pdf");
>         BufferedImage actualImage = null;
>         try {
>             try (PDDocument document = PDDocument.load(pdfFile)) {
>                 PDFRenderer pdfRenderer = new PDFRenderer(document);
>                 pdfRenderer.setAnnotationsFilter(PDAnnotation::isPrinted);
>                 pdfRenderer.setDefaultDestination(RenderDestination.VIEW);
>                 actualImage = pdfRenderer.renderImage(0);
>             }
>             if (actualImage != null) {
>                 ImageIO.write(actualImage, "png", new File("somePath", 
> "out.png"));
>             }
>         } catch (IOException e) {
>             e.printStackTrace();
>         }
>     }
> {code}
> When setting the page rotation to 0 the annotation can be seen in the 
> "out.png", when selecting another rotation, it is gone.
> I am assuming, that the following code in PageDrawer (Method: 
> showAnnotation(PDAnnotation annotation) Lines: 886 to 892) is not working as 
> expected. Maybe the rotation anchor should be set to a different position?
> {code:java}
>    if (annotation.isNoRotate() && this.getCurrentPage().getRotation() != 0) {
>       PDRectangle rect = annotation.getRectangle();
>       AffineTransform savedTransform =this.graphics.getTransform();
>       
> this.graphics.rotate(Math.toRadians((double)this.getCurrentPage().getRotation()),
>  (double)rect.getLowerLeftX(),(double)rect.getUpperRightY());
>       super.showAnnotation(annotation);
>       this.graphics.setTransform(savedTransform);
>    } else {
>       super.showAnnotation(annotation);
