 provides full access for PDF comments.
 You can add normal comments as well as margin comments, underlining etc..
 You can also define a special layout for a comment which you can use several
 times in the document.
 This document is only a excerpt of the documentation of 
\series bold

This is an annotation with a complex option.
\end_layout

\end_inset


\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
To avoid to write the same options like the author again and again, you
 can define a so-called 
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset

\begin_layout Subsection
PDF-Freetext
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
This will typeset a comment in form of a freely positioned box.
 By using the option

 to a certain element of the page.
 With the option 
\series bold
type=typewriter
\series default
 you can write a comment everywhere on the page with a virtual ’typewriter’.
 These PDF-Freetext annotations do have no frame and a transparent background
 for ’overwriting’ arbitrary parts of the page.
 Here is an example in form of a yellow rectangle:
\begin_inset Flex PDF-Freetext

.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
PDF-Markup has some limitations:
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize
the markup text must not be longer than one paragraph
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize
the markup annotation must not be longer than one page, otherwise the recognitio
n of the page break will fail
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize
when using Xe\SpecialChar TeX
 you have to assure that the page dimensions are internally
 output, e.
\begin_inset space \thinspace{}
\end_inset

g.
\begin_inset space \space{}
\end_inset

with the document class option 
\series bold
pagesize
\series default
 for the KOMA-Script classes, or the option 
\series bold
pagesize
\series default
 for the \SpecialChar LaTeX
-package 
\series bold
typearea
\series default
.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Subsection

\begin_layout Plain Layout

\series bold
Attention:
\series default
 Due to technical limitations PDF-Reply only works when using pdflatex.
 On some \SpecialChar LaTeX
 installations it won't even work in general.
\end_layout

\end_inset


\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
With a PDF-Reply you can compose replies to PDF comments.
 The option 
\series bold
replyto
\series default
 provides a clear reference to the comment the reply refers to.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
As example see the reply to the Highlight PDF-Markup from the previous section.
 
\begin_inset Note Note
status open

\begin_layout Plain Layout
\begin_inset Flex PDF-Reply

\end_layout

\end_inset


\end_layout

\end_inset

 It appears in that PDF-Markup comment.
 To be able to reference the PDF-Markup the option 
\series bold
id=1
\series default
 was added to its options.
 The PDF-Reply got the option 
\series bold
replyto=1
\series default
.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
You can also reply to replies by adding an 
\series bold

\end_layout

\end_inset


\end_layout

\end_inset


\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
PDF-Reply has limitations:
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize
It can not support page breaks.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize
The replies will only appear in the PDF annotations on the second page.
 (Replies to comments without page break work smoothly.)
\end_layout

\begin_layout Subsection
PDF-Sideline
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
This will typeset a comment in form of identical markers on every side of
 the page.
 The yellow arrows besides this text are an example of a PDF-Sideline without
 any options: 
\begin_inset Flex PDF-Sideline
status open

\begin_layout Plain Layout
a simple PDF-Sideline
\end_layout

\end_inset


\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
As you can see a PDF-Sideline comment without options is quite useless.
 PDF-Sideline is useful if you want to highlight complete parts of a page.
 The inset options define the layout of the marker while the normal content
 of the inset is the text surrounded by the markers.
 The content of the inset option 
\family sans
Comment
\family default
 will be printed along both markers.
 Here is an example:

\end_inset


\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
The PDF-Tooltip inset has a mandatory argument for the tooltip.
 The object that should be annotated is set into the PDF-Tooltip inset,
 the tooltip is written into the mandatory argument.
 Here is as example of a word with a tooltip: 
\begin_inset Flex PDF-Tooltip

\end_inset


\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
With this custom inset you can reset the global (document-wide) options
 at any time.
 For example the default color for new PDF comments is blue.
 To get Adobe Reader's yellow colored notes for all comments in your document,
 add the PDF comment setup inset to the beginning of your document and insert
 there the option 
\series bold
color=yellow
\series default
.
 This was also done in this document.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
By using its optional option 
\series bold
local
\series default
 you can keep the reset local within a group enclosed by \SpecialChar TeX
-braces.
 For example you want to reset the color only for two consecutive comments,
 then enclose the PDF comment setup inset and the two comment insets in
 \SpecialChar TeX
-braces.
 Here is an example:

PDF Comment style
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
This environment allows you to define a style for a PDF comment that can
 be used by several comments.
 Assuming you write a Math tutorial and want to add popup explanations in
 the PDF for several expressions, then insert a PDF Comment style environment
 before your first formula.
 Name it for example 
\series bold
MathPopup
\series default
, set the color to white with 
\series bold
color=white
\series default
 and highlight the whole formula with 
\series bold
markup=Highlight
\series default
.

\begin_layout Standard
In the comments use the option 
\series bold

\series default
 to use your style.
 Here is an example:

\end_inset

Avatars
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
If you are for example reviewing a document, you need to add your name to
 every of your comments.
 In case you use a special layout of your annotations, you would have to
 do a lot of copy-paste work.
 But this can be avoided if you define for every comment author a special
 avatar.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
Assuming your name is 
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset

Oleg Testman
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset

 you can define an avatar for your name using the environment 
\family sans
Define
\begin_inset space ~
\end_inset

Avatar
\family default
.
 Its mandatory option is the name.
 In your case, name it 
\series bold
Oleg
\series default
.
 Add behind the name of the avatar your name as author by writing 
\series bold
author={Oleg Testman}
\series default
.
\begin_inset Newline newline
\end_inset

You might use a special icon to see at the first look which comments were
 made by you.
 You therefore add behind the author-statement, separated by a comma, 
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset


\series bold
icon=Check
\series default

\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset

 to get a checkmark.
\begin_inset Foot
status open

\begin_layout Plain Layout
For all possible icons, see the 
\series bold
pdfcomment
\series default
 manual.
\end_layout

\end_inset

 the checkmark should have a green color so that you add 
\series bold
color=lime
\series default
 to the avatar definition.
 Your whole definition reads now
\begin_inset Newline newline
\end_inset


\series bold
author={Oleg Testman},icon=Check,color=lime
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
To use now your avatar for PDF comments you have two choices:
\end_layout

\begin_layout Enumerate
You set up that all PDF comments in the document use your avatar.
 This is done by inserting the custom inset 
\family sans
PDF
\begin_inset space ~
\end_inset

Comment-Setup
\family default
 before the first PDF comment in your document.
 Insert to this inset 
\series bold
avatar=Oleg
\series default
.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Enumerate
You add 
\series bold
avatar=Oleg
\series default
 to the options of a particular PDF comment.
 The avatar will then only be used for this comment.
\end_layout

You cannot use non-Latin characters in your comment or in the author name.
 The reason is that PDFs use a special character encoding that is not compatible
 with \SpecialChar LaTeX
