public PDAnnotationSquareCircle(String subType) 
{
        super();
        setSubtype( subType );
}

Creates a Circle or Square annotation of the specified sub type.

Parameters:

subType - the subtype the annotation represents.

 public PDAnnotationSquareCircle(COSDictionary field) 
{
        super( field );
}

Creates a Line annotation from a COSDictionary, expected to be a correct object definition.

Parameters:

field - the PDF objet to represent as a field.

 public PDBorderEffectDictionary getBorderEffect() 
{
        COSDictionary be = (COSDictionary) getDictionary().getDictionaryObject( "BE" );
        if (be != null)
        {
            return new PDBorderEffectDictionary( be );
        }
        else
        {
            return null;
        }
}

This will retrieve the border effect dictionary, specifying effects to be applied used in drawing the line.

 public PDBorderStyleDictionary getBorderStyle() 
{
        COSDictionary bs = (COSDictionary) this.getDictionary().getItem(
                COSName.getPDFName( "BS" ) );
        if (bs != null)
        {
            return new PDBorderStyleDictionary( bs );
        }
        else
        {
            return null;
        }
}

This will retrieve the border style dictionary, specifying the width and dash pattern used in drawing the line.

 public PDGamma getInteriorColour() 
{
        COSArray ic = (COSArray) getDictionary().getItem(
                COSName.getPDFName( "IC" ) );
        if (ic != null)
        {
            return new PDGamma( ic );
        }
        else
        {
            return null;
        }
}

This will retrieve the interior colour of the drawn area Colour is in DeviceRGB colourspace.

 public PDRectangle getRectDifference() 
{
        COSArray rd = (COSArray) getDictionary().getDictionaryObject( "RD" );
        if (rd != null)
        {
            return new PDRectangle( rd );
        }
        else
        {
            return null;
        }
}

This will get the rectangle difference rectangle. Giving the difference between the annotations rectangle and where the drawing occurs. (To take account of any effects applied through the BE entry forexample)

 public String getSubtype() 
{
        return getDictionary().getNameAsString( COSName.SUBTYPE);
}

This will retrieve the sub type (and hence appearance, AP taking precedence) For this annotation.

 public  void setBorderEffect(PDBorderEffectDictionary be) 
{
        getDictionary().setItem( "BE", be );
}

This will set the border effect dictionary, specifying effects to be applied when drawing the line.

 public  void setBorderStyle(PDBorderStyleDictionary bs) 
{
        this.getDictionary().setItem( "BS", bs);
}

This will set the border style dictionary, specifying the width and dash pattern used in drawing the line.

 public  void setInteriorColour(PDGamma ic) 
{
        getDictionary().setItem( "IC", ic );
}

This will set interior colour of the drawn area Colour is in DeviceRGB colourspace.

 public  void setRectDifference(PDRectangle rd) 
{
        getDictionary().setItem( "RD", rd );
}

This will set the rectangle difference rectangle. Giving the difference between the annotations rectangle and where the drawing occurs. (To take account of any effects applied through the BE entry forexample)

 public  void setSubtype(String subType) 
{
        getDictionary().setName( COSName.SUBTYPE, subType );
}

This will set the sub type (and hence appearance, AP taking precedence) For this annotation. See the SUB_TYPE_XXX constants for valid values.
