You probably just want the /Subject:
PdfString subj = annot.getAsString(PdfName.SUBJECT);
String subjStr = subj.toString();
subjStr = subjStr.substring(subjStr.indexOf('-'));
You'll have to translate that to CF-speak, but I think you get the idea.

To: Post all your questions about iText here
Subject: Re: [iText-questions] itext, coldFusion,annotations and
Pop-Up Notes
I agree, I don't mind parsing out the values. If I have the full
content stream, I would just parese it out and get this nissianIQi and
parse it. I originally was able to read in the PDF via coldfusion's pdf
tag. However after someone did a save as on the pdf I lost part of the
stream.
Forgive me as I am new to this, so what you are saying is I can
get the content stream through something like
<cfscript>
/* Read the PDF */
reader =
CreateObject("java","com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfReader").init(expandPath("t
est.pdf"));
/* Get the Page Dictionary object, I think I need this to read
the stream? */
pageDict = reader.getPageN(1);
/* Create a pdfname object */
pdfname = createObject("java","com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfName");
Now I see the dictionary has a getAsStream
however pageDict.getAsStream(pdfName) doesnt work.
Thanks for the help and patience.

Well, those values are to be retrieved from this content

Q
Wouldn't you rather retrieve those values from the /Name
or /Subj of the
annotation? For instance: In this case, instead of going
through the
trouble discovering that you need to find \001\002\022
in the above
syntax snippet and translate it to 01H, wouldn't you
better take
nissanIQi-01H and take the part after the hyphen?
It seems like an awful lot of trouble to get the normal
(/N) appearance
(/AP) from the Annotation, then get the content stream
with the syntax,
parse it to find "a circle", then parse it again to find
the text within
that circle and then find out which characters
correspond with which
glyphs...
I would vote against such an approach.
