The \texttt{-list-annotations} operation prints the textual content of any
annotations on the selected pages to standard output. Each annotation is preceded by the page number and followed by a newline. See Section \ref{textencodings} for more information on text encodings in the output of this operation.

\section{Copy Annotations}
More information can be obtained by listing annotations in JSON format:

\noindent Print annotations from \texttt{in.pdf}, redirecting output to \texttt{annots.txt}.

This produces an array of (page number, CPDFJSON) pairs giving the PDF structure of each annotation. Destination pages for page links will have page numbers in place of internal PDF page links, and certain indirect objects are made direct but the content is otherwise unaltered. Here is an example entry for an annotation on page 10:
{\small\begin{verbatim}
[
10,
{ "/H": { "N": "/I" },
"/Border": [ { "I": 0 }, { "I": 0 }, { "I": 0 } ],

"/URI": "http://www.google.com/" },

A future version of \texttt{cpdf} will allow these JSON annotations to be edited and re-loaded into a PDF file.
