Export and Import Annotations

[aitlahmid]

Hi,

1. I Add a comment to pdf file, when i select the 'Export Annotations to JSON file' Option, a message error: 'Export annotations action has failed; please ensure annotations are added properly'. What is the problem?
2. Many users can annotate a pdf file. I need a code exemple for exporting the annotations to multiples files (For a userX, select user annotations and export them to a file 'pdfFileName - userX.json').
3. I need a code exemple for importing the annotations from multiples files ('pdfFileName - user1.json','pdfFileName - user2.json',...).

Thanks.
