The Islandora Image Annotation Solution Pack adds the ability to draw a shape over an image and then add a textual annotation to that portion of the image. When the annotation solution pack is enabled a new sub-tab is added to the View tab that includes the annotated view of the image, its annotations (if any), and the toolset needed to add/edit annotations. Annotations consist of three main parts including a category, title, and annotation and depending on configuration may also include a color picker and/or a setting for the stroke width. Any solution pack with an image datastream can be configured to use the image annotation solution pack; however, it only functions with datastreams that are .png or .jpeg. Make sure roles have the permission to create and view annotations.
