flatten(page)

Flatten/Merge the existing annotation appearances with the page content and delete this annotation from a given page. Annotation 'flattening' refers to the operation that changes active annotations (such as markup, widgets, 3D models, etc.) into a static area that is part of the PDF document, just like the other text and images in the document. Note: an alternative approach to set the annotation as read only is using Annot.SetFlag(Annot::e_read_only, true) method. Unlike Annot.SetFlag(...), the result of Flatten() operation can not be programatically reversed.
Parameters:
Name Type Description

Inherited From:
Returns:
A promise that resolves to a rectangle specifying the region where content should be displayed. Note: This rectangle can be same as or inside of the annotation's rectangle.

Inherited From:
Returns:
A promise that resolves to a ColorPt object that denotes the color of the annotation. Note: The color can be in different color spaces: Gray, RGB, or CMYK. Call "GetInteriorColorCompNum" to access the color space information. Note: According to PDF Reference Manual interior color is not the property that is expected for Markup annotations in general, but it applies to many derived annotations (Line,Square,Circle,Polygon,PolyLine,Redaction) and therefore get()/set() methods are provided in the base class Markup. Annotations that do not use interior color will ignore the interior color ('IC' entry), if present in their annotation dictionary. In case no color is specified, CMYK white is returned.
Type
Promise.<Core.PDFNet.ColorPt>

getInteriorColorCompNum()

Returns the number indicating the interior color space of the annotation.

Type
Promise.<number>

getOpacity()

Inherited From:
Returns:
A promise that resolves to the opacity value. Default value: 1.0. Note: This value is applied to all visible elements of the annotation in its closed state (including its background and border) but not to the pop-up window that appears when the annotation is opened. When an appearance stream is presented with the annotation, this entry is ignored.(However, if the compliant viewer regenerates the annotation's appearance stream, it may incorporate this Opacity entry into the stream's content.) Note: This corresponds to the 'CA' field of the annotation's dictionary.
Type
Promise.<number>

getOptionalContent()

Returns optional content associated with this annotation.
Inherited From:
Returns:
A promise that resolves to a SDF object corresponding to the group of optional properties. Note: The return value is an Optional Content Group (OCG) or Optional Content Membership Dictionary (PDF::OCG::OCMD) specifying the optional content properties for the annotation. Before the annotation is drawn, its visibility shall be determined based on this entry as well as the annotation flags specified in the Flag entry. If it is determined to be invisible, the annotation shall be skipped, as if it were not in the document.
Type
Promise.<Core.PDFNet.Obj>

getPadding()

Returns the rectangle difference between overall annotation rectangle and content rectangle.
Inherited From:
See:
  • GetContentRect()
Returns:
A promise that resolves to a set of four numbers represented as a Rect struct. Note: The four numbers of the returning struct specify the difference between two rectangles: the Rect entry of the annotation and the actual bounding box of the underlying rectangle. Such a difference may occur in situations where a border effect causes the size of the annotation Rect entry to increase beyond that of the rectangle. The four numbers of the returning struct correspond to the differences in default user space, between the left, top, right, and bottom of the two above mentioned rectangles. Note: GetPadding() and GetContentRectangle() both use 'RD' entry of the annotation dictionary, but represent it to user in different ways.
Type
Promise.<Core.PDFNet.Rect>

Inherited From:
Returns:
A promise that resolves to the QuadPoint located at a certain index of the QuadPoint array of the TextMarkup annotation. Note: QuadPoints specify the coordinates of quadrilaterals in default user space. Each quadrilateral encompasses a word or group of contiguous words in the text underlying the annotation. The four points(p1, p2, p3, p4) of a QuadPoint specify the quadrilateral's four vertices in counterclockwise order.

Inherited From:
Returns:
A promise that resolves to the number of QuadPoints. Note: QuadPoints specify the coordinates of quadrilaterals in default user space. Each quadrilateral encompasses a word or group of contiguous words in the text underlying the annotation. The four points(p1, p2, p3, p4) of a QuadPoint specify the quadrilateral's four vertices in counterclockwise order. The text needs to be oriented with respect to the edge connecting points (p1) and (p2). The annotation dictionary's Appearance entry, if present, takes precedence over QuadPoints.
Type
Promise.<number>

getRect()

Type
Promise.<boolean>

isValid()

Inherited From:
Returns:
A promise that resolves to true if this is a valid (non-null) annotation, false otherwise. If the function returns false the underlying SDF/Cos object is null or is not valid and the annotation object should be treated as a null object.
Type
Promise.<boolean>

refreshAppearance()

Regenerates the appearance stream for the annotation. This method can be used to auto-generate the annotation appearance after creating or modifying the annotation without providing an explicit appearance or setting the "NeedAppearances" flag in the AcroForm dictionary. Note: If this annotation contains text, and has been added to a rotated page, the text in the annotation may be rotated. If RefreshAppearance is called *after* the annotation is added to a rotated page, then any text will be rotated in the opposite direction of the page rotation. If this method is called *before* the annotation is added to any rotated page, then no counter rotation will be applied. If you wish to call RefreshAppearance on an annotation already added to a rotated page, but you don't want the text to be rotated, you can do one of the following; temporarily un-rotate the page, or, temporarily remove the "Rotate" object from the annotation. To support users adding text annotations while using a PDF viewer, you can also add any viewer rotation to the annotations Rotate object, to have text always rotated correctly, from the users perspective.
Inherited From:
Returns:
Type
Promise.<void>

refreshAppearanceRefreshOptions( [options])

A version of RefreshAppearance allowing custom options to make slight tweaks in behaviour.
Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description

Promise.<void>

removeAppearance( [annot_state] [, app_state])

Removes the annotation's appearance for the given combination of annotation and appearance states.
Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
annot_state number <optional>
 
PDFNet.Annot.State = {
	e_normal : 0
	e_rollover : 1
	e_down : 2
}

app_state string <optional>
 is an optional parameter specifying the appearance state (e.g. "Off", "On", etc) under which the new appearance should be stored. If appearance_state is NULL, the annotation will have only one annotation state.
Inherited From:
Returns:
Type
Promise.<void>

resize(newrect)

Scales the geometry of the annotation so that its appearance would now fit a new rectangle on the page, in user units. Users still have to call RefreshAppearance() later if they want a corresponding appearance stream to be generated for the new rectangle. The main reason for not combining the two operations together is to be able to resize annotations that do not have an appearance stream.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
newrect Core.PDFNet.Rect A reference to the new rectangle to which this annotation has to be resized.
Inherited From:
Returns:
Type
Promise.<void>

rotateAppearance(angle)

Rotates the appearance of the Markup annotation.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
angle number The new rotation Note: Apply a rotation to an existing appearance. This rotation will be reflected in the bounding rect of the annot (which will be updated), but not in any other part of the annotation dictionary. This will effectively create a custom appearance for the annotation, and any subsequent calls to `RefreshAppearance` will clear this transformation.
Inherited From:
Returns:
Type
Promise.<void>

setBorderStyle(bs [, oldStyleOnly])

Sets the border style for the annotation.
Parameters:
Name Type Argument Description
bs Core.PDFNet.AnnotBorderStyle New border style for this annotation.
oldStyleOnly boolean <optional>
 PDF manual specifies two ways to add border information to an annotation object, either through an array named 'Border' (PDF 1.0), or a dictionary called 'BS' (PDF 1.2) the latter taking precedence over the former. However, if you want to create a border with rounded corners, you can only do that using PDF 1.0 Border specification, in which case if you call SetBorderStyle() set the parameter oldStyleOnly to true. This parameter has a default value of false in the API and does not need to be used otherwise.

sets the inner bounding rectangle of the Markup annotation. (Optional)
Parameters:
Name Type Description
cr Core.PDFNet.Rect A Rect struct to be assign to the 'RD' entry of the annotation dictionary. Note: This rectangle can be same as or inside of the annotation's rectangle. If it is smaller, such a difference may occur in situations where a border effect causes the size of the annotation Rect entry to increase beyond that of the rectangle. For FreeText annotation with a callout, content rectangle specifies an inner region for the text to be displayed. Note: According to PDF Reference Manual content rectangle is not the property that is expected for Markup annotations in general, but it applies to many derived annotation classes (FreeText,Square,Circle,Caret) and therefore get()/set() methods are provided in the base class Markup.

setInteriorColor(c, CompNum)

Sets the interior color of the Markup annotation.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
c Core.PDFNet.ColorPt A ColorPt object that denotes the color of the Markup annotation.
CompNum number An integer indicating the number of channels forming the color space used. It also defines the length of the array to be allocated for storing the entries of c. Note: It is necessary to make sure the consistency between the type of parameter c and the value of parameter CompNum. RGB ColorPt corresponds to 3, CMYK ColorPt corresponds to 4, Gray ColorPt corresponds to 1, and transparent corresponds to 0. Note: According to PDF Reference Manual interior color is not the property that is expected for Markup annotations in general, but it applies to many derived annotation classes and therefore get()/set() methods are provided in the base class Markup. Annotations that do not use interior color will ignore the interior color ('IC' entry), if present in their annotation dictionary. Entries out of the specified color space array length will be discarded. Missing entries for a specified color space will lead to potential exceptions.

setOpacity(op)

Sets the opacity value for the annotation. (Optional; PDF 1.4 )
Parameters:
Name Type Description
op number A number indicating the Markup annotation's opacity value. Default value: 1.0. Note: This value is applied to all visible elements of the annotation in its closed state (including its background and border) but not to the pop-up window that appears when the annotation is opened. When an appearance stream is presented with the annotation, this entry is ignored.(However, if the compliant viewer regenerates the annotation's appearance stream, it may incorporate this Opacity entry into the stream's content.) Note: This corresponds to the 'CA' field of the annotation's dictionary.
Inherited From:
Returns:
Type
Promise.<void>

setOptionalContent(content)

Associates optional content with this annotation. (Optional, PDF1.5).
Parameters:
Name Type Description
content Core.PDFNet.Obj A pointer to an SDF object corresponding to the optional content, a PDF::OCG::Group or membership dictionary specifying the PDF::OCG::Group properties for the annotation. Before the annotation is drawn, its visibility shall be determined based on this entry as well as the annotation flags specified in the Flag entry . If it is determined to be invisible, the annotation shall be skipped, as if it were not in the document.

Returns:
Type
Promise.<void>

setPadding(rd)

sets the rectangle difference between overall annotation rectangle and content rectangle. (Optional)
Parameters:
Name Type Description
rd Core.PDFNet.Rect A set of four numbers represented as a Rect struct Note: The four numbers of rd specify the difference between two rectangles: the Rect entry of the annotation and the actual bounding box of the underlying rectangle. Such a difference may occur in situations where a border effect causes the size of the annotation Rect entry to increase beyond that of the rectangle. The four numbers of the rd correspond to the differences in default user space, between the left, top, right, and bottom of the two above mentioned rectangles. Note: SetPadding() and SetContentRectangle() both use 'RD' entry of the annotation dictionary. Two methods are provided to give users additional flexibility and ease of use in setting the values of the 'RD' field.

setPage(page)

sets the reference to a page the annotation is associated with. (Optional PDF 1.3; not used in FDF files)
Parameters:
Name Type Description
page Core.PDFNet.Page The page object user wants the annotation to be associated with. Note: The parameter should be an indirect reference to the page object with which this annotation is associated. This entry shall be present in screen annotations associated with rendition actions

setPopup(ppup)

Sets the Popup object associated with this markup annotation. (Optional; PDF 1.3 )
Parameters:
Name Type Description
ppup Core.PDFNet.Annot A Popup object that is associated with this markup annotation. Note: the Popup is An indirect reference to a pop-up annotation for entering or editing the text associated with this annotation.

setQuadPoint(idx, qp)

sets the QuadPoint to be located at a certain index of the QuadPoint array. (Optional; PDF 1.6 )
Parameters:
Name Type Description
idx number The index where the QuadPoint is to be located (the index is counted from 0).
qp Core.PDFNet.QuadPoint The QuadPoint to be located at a certain index of the QuadPoint array of the TextMarkup annotation. Attention: To make this QuadPoint compatible with Adobe Acrobat|Reader, you can use either clockwise or counterclockwise order, but the points p3 and p4 must be swapped. This is because those readers do not follow the PDF specification for TextMarkup QuadPoints. Note: An array of n QuadPoints specifying the coordinates of n quadrilaterals in default user space. Each quadrilateral shall encompasses a word or group of contiguous words in the text underlying the annotation. The coordinates for each quadrilateral shall be given in the order p1, p2, p3, p4 specifying the quadrilateral's four vertices in counterclockwise order. The text shall be oriented with respect to the edge connecting points (p1) and (p2). The annotation dictionary's Appearance(AP) entry, if present, shall take precedence over QuadPoints.

setRect(pos)

Sets the size and location of an annotation on its page.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
pos Core.PDFNet.Rect Annotation's bounding rectangle, specified in user space coordinates. The meaning of the rectangle depends on the annotation type. For Link and RubberStamp annotations, the rectangle specifies the area containing the hyperlink area or stamp. For Note annotations, the rectangle is describing the popup window when it's opened. When it's closed, the icon is positioned at lower left corner.
