About Remote Annotations

Amaya can store annotation data in a local file system (often called "local annotations") or it can store annotations remotely, in Annotations Servers accessed through the World Wide Web (called "remote annotations").

You can store remote annotations in annotation servers so that the annotations can be downloaded by anyone having the correct access rights, such as is the case of other HTML documents.

Remote annotations are referred to as shared or public annotations, because they can be seen by other people. If you wish to install your own annotation server, please refer to Annotation-Server-HOWTO.
