# README # For a long time pdflatex has offered the command `\pdfannot` for inserting arbitrary PDF annotations. However, the command is presented in a form where additional knowledge of the definition of the PDF format is indispensable. This package is an answer to the – occasional – questions in newsgroups, about how one could use the comment function of Adobe Reader. At least for the writer of LaTeX code, the package offers a convenient and user-friendly means of using `\pdfannot` to provide comments in PDF files. Since version v1.1, pdfcomment.sty also supports: LaTeX -> dvips -> ps2pdf, LaTeX -> dvipdfmx, XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX Unfortunately, support of PDF annotations by PDF viewers may vary. The reference viewer for the development of this package is Adobe Reader. License: **LPPL** Changes in v2.3b: * Bugfix: incorrect vertical position of superscripts in `\pdftooltip` reported and patched by Ross Moore * Bugfix: change zero width in `\pdfcomment` and `\pdfmargincomment` to make the comments visible in both Evince and the internal viewer of TeXStudio reported by shaniaki (BitBucket #7) * improve appearance of tooltips with Mac Preview (at least) feature request by Ross Moore * expand comment argument in `\pdftooltip` before pushing it through `\pdfstringdef` feature request by Robert Terwilliger (Bitbucket #18) * added `pdfencoding=auto` while loading `hyperref` Needed for Unicode bookmarks in `XeTeX` and `LuaTeX` * dropped support for `\pdfreply`
