>From the README:

| A. PROJECT PAX
| ==============
|
| If PDF files are included using pdfTeX, PDF annotations
| are stripped. This project tries a solution without
| altering pdfTeX. A Java program (pax.jar) parses the PDF file that
| will later be included. It writes the data of the annotations
| in a file that can be read by TeX. Then a LaTeX package (pax.sty)
| extends the graphics package. If a PDF file is included, the package
| looks for the file with the annotation data, reads them and puts
| the annotations in the right place.
|
| Project status: experimental

Thanks for the upload.
