In the Getting Started section, you write:

If you have dataview installed, then you can also specify the annotation target with a dataview attribute.

Could you give an example?

Thank you.

I sorted this out - it is a good question.

I add the the following onto a document for a LOCAL PDF file. I had the Dataview plugin installed and enabled:

annotation-target:: "c:\file.pdf"

When I open the page it runs Annotator. Click the three dots in the upper corner of the Obsidian interface to "Open As Markdown" to go back to your back. To view again as Annotator I clicked control+p (windows) and selected the command "Annotator Toggle Annotator / Markdown Mode".

Hope this helps!
