Remove an annotation and invalidate the handle

Source: R/annot_authoring.R
pdf_annot_delete.Rd

Wraps FPDFPage_RemoveAnnot. After the call, the annotation is gone from the page's /Annots array, the underlying FPDF_ANNOTATION is destroyed, and the R handle's externalptr is cleared so further pdf_annot_* calls on it error cleanly via the package's is_open() predicate.

Usage

pdf_annot_delete(annot)

Arguments

annot

A pdfium_annot handle. Parent doc must be readwrite.

Value

Invisibly returns the parent pdfium_doc.

Details

Page-scoped indices on other annotation handles shift after a deletion; re-fetch via pdf_annotations() if you need fresh indices.
