The annotations generated by PDFBOX cannot be displayed in the browser, but they can be displayed in adobe pdf reader

Dear developer

I use getAnnotations().add(anno) to generate annotations, ,but they won't display in my browser. Do you need any other method or is it not supported yet.

        Addannotations annoadder = new Addannotations();
        PDAnnotationFreeText anno = annoadder.setanno(param);


        PDPage page = document.getPage(Integer.parseInt(param[0])-1);
        page.getAnnotations().add(anno);

best

Hi,

Please include more of your code. It does not show how this 
PDAnnotationFreeText is created, and whether you called 
*constructAppearances()* on it. Also upload your PDF to a sharehoster, 
and mention what PDFBox version you're using.
