Hi Jack,
When I read PDFs in Acrobat, I like to leave myself notes with the Note Tool. I'm happy to use Acrobat and Note Tool for now, but I want to know that in the future, I can read/edit/create new annotations using Free software.
I'm writing annotation support as part of my Summer of Code proposal. Both read (display) and write. Look in the next few months for good news. You can look at live.gnome.org/Evince/Annotations and at my blog www.astro.ufsc.br/~henrique.
Evince can't display annotations yet (evince-0.5.1-3, poppler-0.5.1-2 on FC5), but from looking at Bugzilla and the mailing list, it seems that there's some relevant code in CVS under qt4/src, if I'm understanding this correctly. Does this code only display annotations if one's using the qt4 wrapper? If so, what application can I use to read these annotations? Or is this code to be integrated into poppler proper (not wrapper) at some point?
qt4 wrapper have some code for annotations. some code will be merged on poppler main and a glib wrapper will be created too. Cheers, -- Paulo Henrique _______________________________________________ poppler mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/poppler
