Add replies to annotation Leave feedback
On this page
GroupDocs.Annotation allows you to collaborate over document using annotations and annotation replies.
To update an annotation reply, follow these steps:
- Instantiate the Annotator class. Specify the input document path or stream.
- Instantiate the User class.
- Instantiate the Reply class(es).
- Instantiate the annotation object of the appropriate type. Available annotation types are listed here.
- Assign the User class to
Reply.Userproperty (by default it is “Guest”). - Assign the Reply class(es) to the
Repliescollection created at previous steps. - Call the Add method of the Annotator class. Specify the annotation.
- Call the Save method. Specify the output document path or stream.
The following code snippet shows how to add replies to annotation:
using (Annotator annotator = new Annotator("input.pdf"))
{
User user1 = new User
{
Id = 1,
Name = "Tom",
Email = "somemail@mail.com"
};
User user2 = new User
{
Id = 2,
Name = "Jack",
Email = "somebody@mail.com"
};
AreaAnnotation area = new AreaAnnotation
{
Box = new Rectangle(100, 100, 100, 100),
CreatedOn = DateTime.Now,
Message = "This is an area annotation",
PageNumber = 0,
Replies = new List<Reply>
{
new Reply
{
Id = 1,
Comment = "First comment",
RepliedOn = DateTime.Now,
User = user1
},
new Reply
{
Id = 2,
Comment = "Second comment",
RepliedOn = DateTime.Now,
User = user2,
}
}
};
annotator.Add(area);
annotator.Save("result.pdf");
}
