Hello, The code that produced this PDF is in my first post. I think you are right, when Adobe reader opens this PDF, it uses some appearance. But in my code I don't pre-define any appearance at all... If a correctly pre-defined appearance can make Adobe reader display the annotation text using correct font, can you please tell me how to do it ? Thanks.
