Thanks for your quick response (my first post on the list).

Acrobat Preflight reports some "link" annotations and the pointer turns to a
link indicator when hovered over them (and they work).
I see (so far) one XObject named Watermark.
I do not see any annotations that are visible (like sticky notes).
I've spot checked other pages in the Preflight report and except for the
link pages, no others are found.

My workflow drops inbound PDFs into a hot folder where our Kodak Prinergy
system picks them up for Refine. The Refine process uses the Adobe PDF Print
Engine (I've tried both version 1 and 2) to validate the PDFs (fonts,
images, colorspace, etc.) and separates them into single page, single file,
PDFs, ready to impose for proofing/platemaking. It simply returns (and
quickly) the "Invalid Annotation" error, but does not say which page(s).

I will begin to split the file apart and submit individual pages (there are
usually over 100 pages) and see if I can narrow it down.

I've sent one of these files to Kodak and they simple say there are invalid
annotations, but will not elaborate or offer a fix, other then to manually
open and print to postscript, then submit the postscript for refine. But of
course, I want this automated.
