When creating Scribus native docs has the ability to not only add annotations, but bookmarks, articles, form fields and use almost every bit of the javascript capability and or interactive feature in PDF. Next to Acrobat itself, I know of no other application which has these capabilties on any platform. This is one of the most powerful and best kept secrets in Scribus. Now, if your question, can Scribus annotate PDF generated from other sources. No. It is not a PDF "editor" in that sense. Only Acrobat can open and edit PDF features like these. Illustrator can open and edit content within a PDF like lines, text etc, but not the interactive features.
