AddNoteAnnotationA

Annotations and hotspot links

Description

The trailing A denotes the ANSI (char) DLL entry point; the ActiveX/COM surface exposes only the Unicode form. Behaviour is identical to AddNoteAnnotation and string arguments are interpreted using the current SetAnsiMode code page

Adds a note annotation to the selected page. The values of the color parameters range from 0 to 1, with 0 indicating 0% and 1 indicating 100% of the color.

Because this writer creates a linked /Popup annotation and PDF 1.3 annotation flags, PDF 1.2 documents are automatically raised to PDF 1.3 before saving.
