Disable annotation editing in React Native

Markdown version of this page, suitable for AI agents and automation

Nutrient React Native SDK allows you to edit (create, edit, or delete) annotations in a document.

To disable annotation editing for your document, you can set the enableAnnotationEditing configuration option to false, like so:

<NutrientView
  document={DOCUMENT}
  configuration={{
    enableAnnotationEditing: false,
  }}
  ref={this.pdfRef}
  fragmentTag="PDF1"
  style={{ flex: 1 }}
/>

Enable modifications only for specific annotation types

You can control which annotation types are editable, and you can specify their types using the editableAnnotationTypes configuration option. For example, you can allow only the modification of ink annotations:

<NutrientView
  document={DOCUMENT}
  configuration={{
    editableAnnotationTypes: ['ink'],
  }}
  ref={this.pdfRef}
  fragmentTag="PDF1"
  style={{ flex: 1 }}
/>
