Annotations and Bookmarks

The annotation feature lets you attach new information (an annotation) to any line on any page of a report. You can use this feature to:

• Make a comment about a segment of report information; this allows you to return to that specific item at any time
• Add annotation comments to an existing annotation
• Draw the attention of another viewer to specific information in the report

Each line of the report can have multiple annotations attached to it.

Note: A line is a row of characters or blanks on a page of a report. Line locations are referenced by a page number and a line number.

You can create

• Personal annotations by using the private mode
• Annotations available to all viewers by using the public mode.

Bookmarks are annotations that contain no text and are used to allow users to mark report sections for easy access. Bookmarks are created in private mode only; other viewers cannot see bookmarks.
