Q:

I’m currently using BranchFire, but am considering migrating to PDFNet. How might one convert existing “.info” BranchFire annotations to “.xfdf” annotations?

A:

It’s unclear whether the .info files can be converted directly to XFDF documents. However, one solution would be to save the .info files into the PDFs (as non-flattened annotations):

After saving the PDF, you could then call PDFDoc.FDFExtract().SaveAsXFDF() from PDFNet to obtain the XFDF file.
