Annotation and comment empty text field

[ozierau]

Hey all,

I want to annotate or comment some positions. With the code below the annptations are visible in adobe but without the assigned text.

const edit: Recipe = hummusRecipe.editPage(1);
      // tslint:disable-next-line:no-increment-decrement
      for (let index: number = 0; index < interactions.length; index++) {
        const interaction: IInteraction = interactions[index];
        const slide: ISlide = interaction.to.asset as ISlide;
        console.log(interaction);
        edit.comment('Test', 300, 400).text('Test', 200, 300).annot(300, 600, 'Caret', {
          title: 'Test',
          width: 300,
          height: 300,
          flag: 'readonly'
        });
        /**
         * 
         */
      
        
      }
edit.endPage().endPDF();

Anyone knows the problem? Thanks in advance!

I am finding that a simple .comment call which uses the hummus createPDFTextString call is failing. The returned values are always empty. This has got to be a hummus library issue. I logged the following issue there.

galkahana/HummusJS#389

@shaehn not working with hummus js v1.0.101 and hummus-recipe v1.8.6

FIX: Updated hummus recipe annotations.js with the following:
Instead of doing

.writeKey('T')
        .writeLiteralStringValue(this.writer.createPDFTextString(params.title).toBytesArray())

i changed it to:

.writeKey('T')
        .writeLiteralStringValue(params.title || '')

and it worked.

Also the hummus recipe documentation forgot to add annotation.options.text as a possibility.

Hey @chunyenHuang. Thanks for your efforts. Is this implemented? I am having this same issue with the latest version

hey!

I just pulled the latest and still having no luck can any else confirm this? Basically its setting all the options and the coords of the annotation but the annotation is empty still. I had a look at the hummus library but have not really seen any issues with this.
