Note
6.1.5.5 Permanent Annotations
Standard annotations are stored in the TIFF file itself as information contained in annotation
“tags” in the file. They can be added, deleted, or edited as needed and are not part of the file
image itself.
However, it is possible to “burn” annotations into the page image itself using a separate
operation. This operation modifies the underlying image data for the page and removes the
annotation tags from the page. These changes are applied to the underlying document once the
user has elected to “save” the document, and cannot be undone once saved. Note that once
annotations are “burned into” the TIFF file, they are considered to be part of the image, and
are not subject to the operations that can be performed on annotations.
Annotations that have been “burned into” the image file cannot be deleted.
Annotations that have been “burned into” the image file cannot be deleted.
