Methods

	Name	Description
	Close
	Create	Creates a new Highlight annotation, in the specified document.
	DeleteCustomData	Deletes custom data associated with the given key.
	Equals	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Flatten	Flatten/Merge the existing annotation appearances with the page content and delete this annotation from a given page. Annotation 'flattening' refers to the operation that changes active annotations (such as markup, widgets, 3D models, etc.) into a static area that is part of the PDF document, just like the other text and images in the document.
	GetAnnotType	Gets the type.
	GetAppearance	Gets the annotation’s appearance for the given combination of annotation and appearance states.
	GetAppearance(AnnotAnnotationState)	Gets the annotation’s appearance for the given combination of annotation and appearance states.
	GetAppearance(AnnotAnnotationState, String)	Gets the annotation’s appearance for the given combination of annotation and appearance states.
	GetBorderEffect	Gets the Border Effect of the Markup Annotation.
	GetBorderEffectIntensity	Sets the Border Effect of the Markup Annotation. (Optional; PDF 1.5 )
	GetBorderStyle	Gets the border style for the annotation. Typically used for Link annotations.
	GetColorAsCMYK	Gets an annotation's color.
	GetColorAsGray	Gets an annotation's color.
	GetColorAsRGB	Gets the annotation’s active appearance state.
	GetColorCompNum	Gets the color space the annotation's color is represented in.
	GetContentRect	Gets the inner bounding rectangle of the Square. (Optional; PDF 1.5)
	GetContents	Gets the contents.
	GetCreationDates	Gets the creation date of the Markup Annotation
	GetCustomData	Returns custom data associated with the given key.
	GetDate	Gets an annotation's last modified date.
	GetFlag	Gets the flag.
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetInteriorColor	Sets the interior color of the Square. (Optional; PDF 1.4 )
	GetInteriorColorCompNum	Gets the number indicating interior color space of the Square.
	GetOpacity	Gets the contant opacity value corresponding to the annotation.
	GetOptionalContent	Gets optional content of an annotation.
	GetPadding	Gets the rectangle difference of the Square. (Optional; PDF 1.5)
	GetPage	Gets the page the annotation is associated with.
	GetPopup	Gets the Popup object associated with this Markup annotation.
	GetQuadPoint	Gets the QuadPoint located at a certain index of the QuadPoint Array of the TextMarkup annotation.
	GetQuadPointCount	Gets the number of QuadPoints in the QuadPoints Array of the TextMarkup annotation.
	GetRect	Gets the rect.
	GetRotation	Gets the rotation value of the annotation.The Rotation specifies the number of degrees by which the annotation shall be rotated counterclockwise relative to the page. The value shall be a multiple of 90.
	GetSDFObj	Gets the SDFObj.
	GetStructParent	Gets the struct parent of an annotation. (Required if the annotation is a structural content item; PDF 1.3)
	GetSubject	Gets subject of the Markup Annotation.
	GetTitle	Gets the title of the Markup Annotation.
	GetTriggerAction	Get the Action associated with the selected Annot Trigger event
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetUniqueID	Gets the unique ID.
	IsMarkup	Checks if is markup.
	IsValid	Checks if is valid.
	RefreshAppearance	Regenerates the appearance stream for the annotation. This method can be used to auto-generate the annotation appearance after creating or modifying the annotation without providing an explicit appearance or setting the "NeedAppearances" flag in the AcroForm dictionary.
	RefreshAppearance(RefreshOptions)	A version of RefreshAppearance allowing custom options to make slight tweaks in behaviour.
	RemoveAppearance	Removes the annotation's appearance
	RemoveAppearance(AnnotAnnotationState)	Removes the annotation's appearance for the given combination of annotation and appearance states.
	RemoveAppearance(AnnotAnnotationState, String)	Removes the annotation's appearance for the given combination of annotation and appearance states.
	Resize	Resize.
	SetAppearance(Obj)	Sets the annotation’s appearance for the given combination of annotation and appearance states. (Optional; PDF 1.2)
