[jira] [Commented] (PDFBOX-4773) Missing writeXML for FDFAnnotations

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4773?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17036230#comment-17036230 ] 

Andrew Hung commented on PDFBOX-4773:
-------------------------------------

I've attached the 4 files modified at this moment. Description below:

1) FDFDictionary.java - modified writeXML to process the FDFAnnotations

2) FDFAnnotation.java - added writeXML method (does nothing since the requirements for each annotation will be different, instead handled by subclasses)

3) FDFAnnotationCircle.java - added writeXML to write the circle metadata

4) FDFAnnotationSquare.java - added writeXML to write the square metadata

5) FDFAnnotationLine.java - added writeXML to write the line metadata

 

Looking into FDFAnnotationHighlight.java - adding writeXML to write highlight metadata, though not 100% sure what's fully required but need to handle the appearance as a gesture.

> Hi All,
>  
> I'm working on enhancement (contribution) for save annotations into XFDF file, though I cannot find the XFDF specification that are publicly available.
> It will be hard to implement properly otherwise for all the different types available, though I have partially developed it for line, circle and square.
>  
> Currently PDFBox does not have this capabilities, only has ability for form fields.
>  
> I'll upload the modified files once I've gotten to a break-point
>   
> Thank you,
> Andrew H
