How can I export Okular annotations?

[biosftw]

Well the problem is that I need to send annotated pdfs to ppl who are not using okular/kubuntu. Thus I am looking for a way to save the annotations with the pdf file.

Thanks

Re: How can I export Okular annotations?

Why the newly added annotations are not in my PDF document?
Short answer: Okular cannot change the annotations in PDF documents.

Longer answer: the library used for reading PDF documents (Poppler) does not allow changing the annotations inside a PDF document. Also, due to the fact that Okular allows you to annotate in any kind of document it supports (even if that format does not support annotations), Okular saves the annotations internally in the local data directory for each user.
