I have used Acrobat and I find that Sticky Notes are  extremely useful to add
extra text that is not visible at first glance. However, a reader can hover his
mouse on the Sticky note icon 9or any other discreet icons) to read such extra
hidden material.

This technique can be exploited to add extra material to a book for advanced
readers. (While the normal reader can just ignore the Sticky Notes, the advanced
readers can read up the Sticky Notes to pick up finer nuances of the subject.)

Currently we need Acrobat to edit an existing pdf file to add Sticky Notes. 

My suggestion is that the same code can be added by openOffice while exporting
the odt to pdf. After all, pdf is an open standard.

I have created a sample for this (I exported a file from OOo to pdf and then
added a single Sticky Note using Acrobat.) I am enclosing both pdf files as
sample (one has a Sticky Note, the other is without a Sticky Note.)

Thanks.
