Post by Toygun »

Question: Is that possible :?: If no could such a feature be added in the future?

Hello Toygun,

It is not possible, and not really defined in the PDF specification - so it can not be implemented as a feature request either.

Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello Stefan,

Thank you for your reply.

Note fields would be more useful if such a feature is defined. Maybe 5-10 years later... :|

Have a nice day.

Hello Toygun,

It is not something that we can define. The PDF file format is now an ISO specification - so it has to be added to the spec before we can implement it. As you said - maybe is several years time there would be changes that would allow such a columned note to be created.

Kind regards,
Stefan
