As I said PdfStamperImp.addComments() has code to restore the comments
from FDF but the same principle will work with any annotation. You can
(and should) store the data as an FDF, just look at what Acrobat
produces for the comments. You can also have a look at FdfWriter to have
some ideas. Probably the easiest way is to always save the annotations
from an existing doc.
If you only wish to support standard Acrobat annotations
through PDF 1.4, I would completely agree with Paulo - this is the way to go.
However, AFAIK, iText doesn't support the newer annotation
types added in PDF 1.5 & 1.6, nor does it support custom annot
types. So you would lose any support for those by following this method.
