I think it is supported because PDFBox allows only a low level access. You can call the method with whatever you want.

But maybe Adobe doesn't display it nested even if PDFBox created it that way?

What you could do is to create your file with nested replys and then display it on the computer of your friend.

hi, i would like to ask if deep level nested replies are supported in
annotations?

e.g.

annotation comment
- reply 1
   - comment to reply 1
- reply 2
- reply 3
   - comment to reply 3 (id : abc)
      - another nested comment to reply id "abc"

because here is what i have so far. i looked at adobe acrobat reader dc for
basis. when replying to an annotation, it will always create a reply where
the parent comment is the first. so no nested reply possible. in the sample
above, it will be like this

annotation comment
- reply 1
- comment to reply 1
- reply 2
- reply 3
- comment to reply 3 (id : abc)
- another nested comment to reply id "abc"

where all the IRT replies point to "annotation comment" as parent.

tried to create a PDAnnotationText where the setInReplyTo is the reply it
is pointing to but once generated, it does not become a nested reply. it is
still 1 level deep.

reason i am asking is because a friend of mine showed adobe reader xi where
nested replies is possible. but when i download adobe reader xi, it
redirects me to reader dc which only has 1 level deep of nested replies,
not more than that.

i figure that acrobat scrapped the deep level nesting replies for the new
versions onwardS? pdfbox also does not seem to create nested replies
(unless i coded it wrong)

can anyone confirm?
