afi.GetMerged(0); (or item.Merged(0); I don't know the exact syntax
in iTextSharp). The result is a dictionary.
"In this dictionary, there's a key /F, F stands for Flags:
a set of flags specifying various characteristics of the
annotation (see 12.5.3, "Annotation Flags"). Default value: 0."
The value is a number (used as a bitset). The fifth bit is
the NoRotate bit: "if set, do not rotate the annotation's
appearance to match the rotation of the page. The upper-left corner
of the annotation rectangle shall remain in a fixed location on the
page, regardless of the page rotation. See further discussion following
this Table."
