// Get all annotations in current document | |
var annots = this.getAnnots(); | |
// Assemble them into a Tab-delimited string (remove linebreaks in comments, too) | |
var cMyC = "Comment\tPage"; | |
for ( var i=0; i<annots.length; i++ ) | |
cMyC += ("\n"+annots[i].contents.replace(/(\r\n|\n|\r)/gm,"")+ "\t" + annots[i].page); | |

this.createDataObject({cName: "myCommentList.xls", cValue: cMyC}); | |
