Are there specific annotation types you are looking for? PDFBox does supports creating the annotation type defined in the PDF spec. But PDFBox doesn't support creating an appearace stream for all annotation types as the details of the content of the appearance stream (the look of the appearance) is not part of the PDF specification. So you might have to create that on your own - possibly replicating the content of sample annotations created with other applications.

I did a search and found the following example
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/pdfbox/trunk/examples/src/main/java/org/apache/pdfbox/examples/pdmodel/AddAnnotations.java
I cant speak to the support of "all types of annotations from acrobat".

Yes, look at the API docs... but that'll mean a lot of work if you want
to support everyone of them. As you see in the AddAnnotations example,
you need to care about a lot of parameters.
