Problem with PdfAnnotation

[wang yun <yunwangwatlow (at) yahoo.com>]

Dear Paulo,
 
 I get two problems with PdfAnnotation. Please see my
 code.
 
 1. PdfBorderDictionary.STYLE_DASHED doesn't work.
 
 2. PdfAnnotation.createScreen stop working on the
 second page. It only works on the first page.
 
 Thanks for your help.
