No problem, I appreciate your help here!

Yes, I just want to display a number along with each annotation. That way if exported the numbers (embedded images/svg at that point I guess) will be visible with the various annotations. I can export a separate sheet of comments that are all numbered as well. Now people looking at a printed copy can see all of the comments around each annotation.

Basically imagine a number to the bottom right of each annotation in terms of visuals. It need not be bottom right, but that’s where we were thinking.
