Document annotation refers to the process of adding metadata or labels to a document to make its content more understandable, searchable, and analyzable. This can involve manually or automatically highlighting specific elements, such as entities, concepts, or relationships within a text document, image, or other types of content.
Document annotation is commonly used in various fields, including natural language processing (NLP), machine learning, data mining, and information retrieval. The annotations can take different forms depending on the type of information being highlighted and the purpose of the annotation.
Common Types of Document Annotation
- Named Entity Recognition (NER)
- Keyphrase Extraction
- Sentiment Analysis
- Part-of-Speech Tagging
- Semantic Annotation
- Image Annotation

Python Based PDF Annotation
To annotate PDF documents using Aspose.Total for Python, you’ll specifically work with the Aspose.PDF for Python library. Aspose.PDF provides extensive features for creating, manipulating, and annotating PDF files. Ensure that you have the Aspose.PDF for Python library in your project dependencies.
Here’s python based code demonstrating how to annotate a PDF document using Aspose.PDF for Python: This Python code utilizes the Aspose.PDF library to perform actions on a PDF document. It begins by loading a PDF file. Subsequently, it identifies all free text annotations on the second page of the document. The code then enters a loop, iterating through each free text annotation, and deletes them from the document. Finally, the modified document is saved to a specified output file. Essentially, this script demonstrates how to remove all free text annotations from the second page of a PDF document using Aspose.PDF in a concise and efficient manner.
