Support "Caret" annotation #61

Open srenault-list opened 2 years ago

It would be nice if the program could extract "Caret" annotations as well, which are the opposite of StrikeOut (suggestion of new text within a context).

Thanks for the suggestion! Do you have an example of a PDF with such annotations?

Hi, sure. Here is a very basic example with one text addition (insertion) suggestion. 1_caret annotation example.pdf

It might be nice if pdfannots could return a bit of context (i.e. some of the text before and after the insertion suggestion) in addition to the text insertion suggestion.
