Welcome to the world of proprietary software.
Some pdf viewers (such as okular on KDE, now also available on Windows and MacOS) allow annotations, but the data is saved in an auxiliary file.
Can you tell me where to find Okular for Windows? I read some rumors that it was available, but http://okular.kde.org/download.php only gives instructions for compiling Okular, using a bunch of Linux packages.
This can be exchanged with collegues, but is specific to the reader employed, thus limiting the portability ("p"df).
The advantage, however, is that all formats handled by the document viewer can be annotated, in principle...
Sounds good... is the annotation mechanism available via an API? Or do I have to go through and highlight each hyphen by hand? Thanks, Lars
