In Foxit PDF SDK for Web, annotations include not only regular PDF annotations but also text markup (think text highlighting, underlining, strikeout, squiggly, etc.), drawing annotations (think shapes like circle, rectangle, arrow), and other annotations, such as notes, free text, as well as standard and dynamic PDF stamping. Annotation The annotation supports three types of files to import/export data: XFDF, FDF and JSON. The following table lists what annotations currently support or not supported to import/export.

With PDF SDK, text search enables you to search a string across thousands of documents since the full content (including split text, combined words, metadata, annotations and so on) is indexed. This means no more sifting through endless reams of paper to find that all important contract or invoice again. Text search takes seconds to execute and your query can be as simple or complex as needs be. Our search functionality in the Web SDK is more UI based. To use more text search functionality than shown in the sample below, you must use annotations as per the developer guide.
Programmatically search and sensor sensitive information in a document for legal or security purposes to keep customer and employee information safe. Achieve full GDPR-compliance with Foxit’s powerful technology. Our redaction module applies annotations to block sensitive information in a document. Only a dark line will show in the place of the content in the front-end and no sensitive data is kept in the meta information. Our technology utilizes a process that ensures redacted material is deleted and the blacked out (redacted) areas become images, stopping someone being able to access the sensitive information underneath.
A digital signature is a digitally generated representation of a person’s identity through either an image of a persons signature or a computer generated typed signature which verifies a person’s identify and authenticates the contents of a document. In technical terms digital signatures are generated public key encryption that confirms a person’s identity in order to substantiate a document for legal or other purposes. Digital signatures can happen at page or document level depending on regulation and company standards.
