PTText

@interface PTText : PTMarkup

A text annotation represents a “sticky note” attached to a point in the PDF document. When closed, the annotation shall appear as an icon; when open, it shall display a pop-up window containing the text of the note in a font and size chosen by the conforming reader. Text annotations do not scale and rotate with the page (i.e. they should behave as if the NoZoom and NoRotate annotation flags).

  • Creates a Text annotation and initializes it using given Cos/SDF object.

    Note

    The constructor does not copy any data, but is instead the logical equivalent of a type cast.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    - (instancetype)initWithD:(PTObj *)d;

    Swift

    init!(d: PTObj!)

    Parameters

    d

    The Cos/SDF object to initialze the annotation with.
