Change annotation properties...

[lidds]

Currently when you place an annotation element in a PDF e.g. a line or sticky it takes the OS login user name and puts that against the annotation item. Is it possible for me to change this to display different info. The reason for this is that I have an application that I am writing using your ActiveX, so what I want to be able to do is display the username from my application instead of the Windows OS username?

Thanks

Hi, Simon.

You may specify the custom name by:

Code: Select all

ax.SetProperty("Identity.Name", "My Custom Name", 0);

After this the "My Custom Name" text will be used for all new annotations in the author tag.

Best
Regards.
