Is there a way of making annotations respect the > transformation matrix? Let me see: when we're talking about drawing rectangles, we're talking about the Adobe Imaging Model and transformation matrices. When we're talking about annotations, we're talking about the Carousel Object System and no transformation matrix is involved. You're mixing things that shouldn't be mixed. Annotations are not a part of the page content. That's inherent to PDF.
