I am looking to install “PDF annotations” app. Activating the app does not bring the “annotate”-functionality for PDF files. So I deactivated the app again.

Then I found this https://gitlab.com/nextcloud-other/nextcloud-annotate and tried to reproduce, but without any success.

Is there a how-to for dummies with more explanation how to install? e.g. i don’t know if the system fullfills dependencies svg2pdf, pdftk, gs and I don’t know how to check. I did “sudo apt ghostscript” and “pip install svglib”. And pdftk I couldn’t find.

Thanks for help!
