PDF Editor Layer > Operations > op.annots.flatten


Overview

The operation allows to convert annotations into the pages content.

Parameters

Name Type Description
Input Array Array of IUnknown-based objects containing the IPXC_Annotation objects that need to be flattened. Also the IPXC_Document can be specified - that will mean that all of the annotations will be flattened. Note that all of the annotations must belong to one document.
Output Array Array of IUnknown-based objects containing the IPXC_Document which annotations were flattened. Not yet implemented.
Options Dictionary Dictionary with options of the operation.

Sample

//C#
private void FlattenSquareAnnotations(PDFXEdit.IPXV_Document Doc, PDFXEdit.PXV_Inst Inst)

	PDFXEdit.IPXS_Inst pSInt = (PDFXEdit.IPXS_Inst)Inst.GetExtension("PXS");
	uint nSquareAtom = pSInt.StrToAtom("Square");
	int nID = Inst.Str2ID("op.annots.flatten", false);
	PDFXEdit.IOperation Op = Inst.CreateOp(nID);
	PDFXEdit.ICabNode input = Op.Params.Root["Input"];
	// Filling the operation with the annotations that need to be flatten
        uint pagesCnt = Doc.CoreDoc.Pages.Count;
