(In reply to #128)
Xournal uses a trick: it loads PDF file as background for its journals (using
poppler library). You can export the data as PDF, but you'll get the original
PDF as background and the annotations as graphics over the background. So:
- You can't search or copy text and other text related opearations as long as
there's no text, original PDF is now a background image.
- There's no info about the annotations, they are just images, so no popup
notes, user info, etc.

So Xournal doesn't really annotate PDFs, just used a trick to simulate it.
There's no chance to use Xournal code to implement PDF annotations.

See Xournal manual, "PDF Annotate" section:
