annotationFile

IBM Daeja ViewONE requires an annotations file that contains a list of the annotations to display, and their associated properties.

Typically, you do not specify the location of a physical file for the parameter value. Instead, you specify the location of the server-side object that streams an annotations file to the viewer. Examples of a server-side object include a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) script, an Active Server Page (ASP), or an executable (EXE) file.

You can add parameters, such as a user ID or a document ID, to the query string part of the URL to provide user-specific annotations or document-specific annotations. If you specify a server-side object to stream or supply this file, this object must handle any parameters that you include.

The annotations file must conform to the IBM Daeja ViewONE annotations file specification.
