At the moment annotations are only possible in text context which makes them only really useful on text documents. Allowing <office:annotation> in a <draw:page> can be seen as a bug fix to the spec to allow annotations also for page based documents. And seeing that it is already implemented in OO shows that there was a need for it which we see in koffice too. I agree that if it should be possible on all elements is something that should be discussed for ODF Next Best regards, Thorsten
