Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-4515:
-----------------------------------------

RC = rich text string, not supported by PDFBox (but by Adobe) that shall be 
used to generate the appearance of the annotation

DA = default appearance string. But if the /AP already exists, that one counts.

DS = default style string

I remember that I had trouble too when working on freetext annotations 
appearance handling last year, see lets see my own comments and code there… the 
/C color is the fill color. The last non stroking color in /DA is the stroking 
color (for border) and as non stroking color (for text). But I didn't work with 
rich texts so I don't know that one.

If you change characteristics of existing annotations when I recommend you 
remove the appearance. Ideally you recreate it yourself. If  you can't Adobe 
will do it for you. Other viewers (e.g. PDFBox 2.0.* and PDF.js won't).

> I am trying to extract information related to "Add Text Callout" annotation 
> tool from pdf. I get to know from initial research that it's a "FreeText" 
> type annotation and it's intent is "FreeTextCallout". But I am unable to 
> figure out like how can I get the rectangle info for both the box and arrow 
> attached to it. I am able to get the bounding box which encloses both the 
> markups. I don't know it's already implemented or not.
