Hi there, You still have not answered my question about how you are loading the document after its been downloaded. Are you using the rest API to extract and load annotations when a document is loaded? What does your document loading code look like? The reason this happens is usually because the annotations are being loaded twice - the ones baked into the document from the merge operation that you are doing, and another time when you load the document and extract and import the XFDF. If you _are_ using the rest API to extract and load annotations, then you need to provide the `disableFlattenedAnnotations` option.
