Our VB.NET image annotation control supports adding callout annotation to images and documents. An annotation is metadata (e.g. comment, explanation and presentational markup) attached to text, image or other data. Annotations are often used through document viewer or image viewer in electronic products. print pdf in asp.net c#, convert pdf to word c#, c# edit pdf, convert pdf to tiff c# itextsharp, c# determine number of pages in pdf, data matrix c# library. In addition to callout annotation, there are many other annotation types supported by this VB.NET image annotation. Here is a list of them.

Create Callout Annotation in VB.NET
A tutorial for creating callout annotation on images and documents in VB.NET application will be demonstrated in this part. Using callout annotation, you can add additional information on a specific area of an image or document. The callout annotation mainly contains two parts-that are editable text area and a leader line which is used to point the target image or document area.
Users are able to download our VB.NET callout annotation control trial package freely. Before using it, users need to install .NET Framework 2.0 or later versions and Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 or above to create a program for callout annotation creation using VB language. Then, RasterEdge .Imaging.Basic.dll and RasterEdge .Imaging.Annotation.dll should be located to your program references.
Now, you can use the following comprehensive VB.NET demo code to directly create callout annotation.
