AddLinkAnnotation Method

The AddLinkAnnotation method is used to add a link annotation to the PDF document. To add a Link Annotation, create an instance of gtPDFLinkAnnot, set its properties and pass it to AddAnnotItem.

Syntax

Note:  The annotation items added using this method need not be freed by the user.  All the items will be freed at the end when EndDoc is called.

Example Code

[VC++]

CgtPDFLinkAnnotationX LinkAnnot1;

LinkAnnot1 = m_Engine.CreateLinkAnnotation();

LinkAnnot1.SetBorderColor(RGB(50, 147, 77));

LinkAnnot1.SetJSAction("app.alert('Hello, World! - with JavaScript')");

LinkAnnot1.SetRect(1, 2.5, 1.6, 2.65);

m_Engine.AddLinkAnnotation(LinkAnnot1);
