Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Preview annotation is not visible after Typeset

[LabMan]

I am new to LaTeX, and to this forum.
I want to insert a PDF file which I annotated with Preview (Snow Leopard), just highlighted few lines and wrote on the margins. I inserted the PDF in LaTeX, using TexShop and the following command from another post,

Code: Select all

\includepdf[pages = {1-2}, nup=1x1, scale=0.8, delta=8mm 11mm, frame, rotateoversize=true, scale=0.9, delta=8mm 11mm, frame, rotateoversize=true, pagecommand = {}]{Images/11.pdf}

but I can't see my annotation in the outcome PDF.

Any hint?

Many thanks.

Hello again,

I really appreciate any other method that retain the annotation of the inserted PDF file in the final output pdf.

Many thanks

According to the descriptions for Preview it should be possible to save the file in another format [1]. Perhaps you can find EPS among the offered formats. If so, save the file as EPS, check if it contains all your modifications and convert it afterwards with the epstopdf command line tool (needs Perl installed). Perhaps this workaround helps.

Thank you localghost for your support.
- Preview does not have the option to save as EPS.

However, problem is solved.
- After annotating the PDF file, I chose File->Print, and then Save as PDF from the PDF menu in the lower left part of the dialogue box, and inserted this PDF file in the .tex file. My annotations were thankfully in the output PDF (after Typset).
