Since latest release today 13th of March using the pdfEmbedAPI
addAnnotationsInPDF
https://developer.adobe.com/document-services/docs/overview/pdf-embed-api/howtos_comments/#addannota...
function results in the annotation added twice on any given PDF, issue happening on all browsers and accross operating systems (tested on Macos, Linux, Windows)
Every type of PDF is causing the issue and its consistent on both our application and the example repository provided by Adobe https://github.com/adobe/pdf-embed-api-samples
Code to replicate:
- Pull the latest release of the PDFEmbed api sample
- On https://github.com/adobe/pdf-embed-api-samples/blob/master/More%20Samples/React%20Samples/src/sample... override this function to delete and all back all markers
onFileUpload = event => {
event.persist();
this.viewSDKClient.ready().then(() => {
const files = event.target.files;
if (files.length > 0 && this.isValidPDF(files[0])) {
const fileName = files[0].name;
const reader = new FileReader();
reader.onloadend = e => {
const filePromise = Promise.resolve(e.target.result);
/* Helper function to render the file using PDF Embed API. */
viewSDKClient
.previewFileUsingFilePromise(
"pdf-div",
filePromise,
fileName,
previewConfig
)
.then((adobeViewer) => {
adobeViewer.getAnnotationManager().then((annotationManager) => {
annotationManager
.removeAnnotationsFromPDF()
.then((result) => {
annotationManager
.addAnnotationsInPDF(result["annotations"])
.then((result) => {
console.log(result);
})
.catch((error) => console.log(error));
})
.catch((error) => console.log(error));
});
});
};
reader.readAsArrayBuffer(files[0]);
}
});
}
