Hello,

In order to use the office editor, enableOfficeEditing: true, must be enabled.
We currently do not have the feature to add annotations while this is enabled.

However, you can convert the DOCX file to PDF and add annotations that way.
Documentation here: Convert-office | Apryse Documentation

Hello Denis,

There is currently no plan for office editing to support annotations. However, you can send in a feature request for us to review based on your use case and feasibility.
