I am trying to read read annotations from an ESRI Geodatabase (Arc 
9) and need the following attributes:

objectid
text_string
shape describing the insertion point/orientation/size, etc.


Ideally I would like to use the Geodatabase Reader but certain 
annotation features are causing the FME engine to get a runtime 
error (I have a ticket with SAFE support, but I think it might be 
hard for me to tell them what data is causing this problem).

While I am trying to troubleshoot the root problem I thought I would 
like to explore other approaches to this problem.  When I read the 
same annotation feature class using the SDE Reader, I do not have 
the runtime errors, but the feature shape is a polygon and not an 
insertion point.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how I could use the SDE Reader to 
also get the text_string and insertion point information for an 
annotation feature class?  Is this even possible?

Thanks,

Alfred
