I've already made routine that reads the set of basic "properties" from
annotation dictionary into special value-object, that is used for

Yes, it sounds like - at least for the simple stuff - you've
got it handled. The only area that isn't covered would be the case
of an annotation (like a Stamp) where there is more than one stream
that needs to be stored.
Now I'm solving an inverse problem : how to create PDF annotation using
pre-populated value-object (container of annotation properties) and iText
library.
This way worked for all simple properties, untill I've enocunered streams.
This type of data is a mixed type, and I was confused not knowing how to
handle this type of data.
Look at how setAppearance() works - that what it is doing,
setting a stream.
You pointed out that I must go low level - and I did. After additional
examining of PDF Reference it seemed to me that I've found the right way of
setting the annotation appeearance, but before starting the implementation I
asked you to check my logic.
Yes, you are definitely on the right path!!
