It would be really nice if you would not release software that has glaring bugs like the fact that annotations DO NOT WORK. It appears that they are NOT SAVED AT ALL. You could have greyed out the annotation option, but instead as a user of the software I of course assumed that since they were there, they worked, as one tends to assume. So I have now just wasted about 12 hours of time adding annotations to a document (page proofs for a book) and now they are all lost and I will need to re-do them.

If I did not have notes, it could have been 36 hours, or longer. I regularly save and thought this was sufficient to ensure that I was not going to have wasted my time -- I did not realise that I needed to close and re-open the document to learn whether the annotations would actually save. Please do not release software with features that do not work in future. Please grey out functions that don't work. It is extremely unprofessional and rude. :(
