PdfCopy can only be used to add pages, no extra content, annotation or
bookmarks are allowed.
Currently the only to do what you want is to place the pages in a new
document. The problem you'll have is that the annotations are lost.
This features are on the top of my to-do list but are very tricky, specially
the bookmarks.
