Hi All,

Is there any property available to add reply for the particular comments/annotation using JavaScript in Acrobat.

Please guide me if it is possible.

Thanks!

Yes, it's possible. You basically create a normal annotation and then set its inReplyTo property to point to the name property of the annotation to which you are replying. See also the refType property, which lets you define the kind of reply it is.

Hi try67,

Thanks for your logic and it is working fine at my end.

Also could you please suggest how to find the list of annotations which is having reply comments.

Thanks!

That's more complicated. You would need to scan all the annotations in the

file, collecting the values of their inReplyTo properties to an array, then

you can access those annotations in the array using the getAnnot(name)

method.
