FLAGS_NOZOOM - Do not scale the annotation when zooming in and out of the document.
FLAGS_NOROTATE - Do not rotate the annotation when rotating the document for display.
FLAGS_NOVIEW - Do display the annotation on screen. Annotation may still print depending on the FLAGS_PRINT value.
FLAGS_READONLY - Display the annotation but do not respond to user clicks.
FLAGS_LOCKED - Do not allow the annotation to be deleted or its properties changed.

Parameters:
