It may be that those viewers can't create the appearance as Acrobat does. You 
may create it with iText but you'll have to do it yourself.

  Subject: Re: [iText-questions] createInk not displaying in PDF on UbuntuLinux


  It now appears that other annotation types are also not displaying in Ubuntu
  viewers.

  Here's some code I've written that creates a file called pdf.test. It writes
  'TEST' in capitals and then adds a large diagonal line
  (PdfAnnotation.createLine) next to it.

  Ubuntu viewers are displaying only the text.

  Can someone please confirm whether they see both the text (TEST) and the
  diagonal line on Ubuntu or other Linux Distro. Thanks.

  import java.io.*;
  import com.itextpdf.text.pdf.*;
  import com.itextpdf.text.*;

  public class test
     {
      public static void main(String arg[])throws Exception
        {
         Document document=new Document();
         PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document,new
  FileOutputStream("test.pdf"));

         document.open();  
         document.add(new Paragraph("TEST"));
         
         Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(119.0f,579.0f,354.0f,778.0f);
         PdfAnnotation annotation = PdfAnnotation.createLine(writer, rect, "",
  120.0f, 580.0f, 353.0f, 777.0f);      
         writer.addAnnotation(annotation); 
         
         document.close();
        }
  }
