Work with Document Annotations

GroupDocs.Annotation Cloud SDK for .NET allows you to utilize all the features of the GroupDocs.Annotation REST API which provides a number of ways to deal with the annotations.

Import document annotations - C#

  // Get your AppSID and AppKey at https://dashboard.groupdocs.cloud (free registration is required).
  var configuration = new Configuration(AppSID, AppKey);
  var apiInstance = new AnnotateApi(configuration);

  // Set request.
  var request = new GetImportRequest()
  {
      filePath = "docs/document.docx"
  };

  var response = apiInstance.GetImport(request);

Robust Set of Annotation Tools

In GroupDocs.Annotation Cloud SDK for .NET, support for two primary annotation types is available. Each annotation type then further has numerous sub-types. The two primary types are; drawing based annotations and text-based annotations or markups. Text-based annotations are used to add comments to text selections, hide confidential text by redaction, apply underlines or strikethroughs to mark text, and stick notes to rich text. Whereas, graphical annotations are used to highlight area with rectangular shape and add notes to it, hide classified image or text, pick particular point within document and apply notes to it, drop arrow to an object to point towards it, draw lines and shapes, apply text-based watermarks, and distance based annotations.
