It seems to me that you have already written all the necessary code to provide such a command line tool, and this command line tool would be really useful.

I have thought about that. At this moment I am using libermetadb.a, that is provided by iRex for the DR, to read the annotations from the sqlite-database (metadata.db). Furthermore I add the annotations first to the Xournal data structures as scribbles and then use the available xournal code to create a new pdf file with the annotations/scribbles appended to it. Ofcourse all can be made into a stand-alone application, but that will take some work. Currently it is not on my 'priority' list. Ofcourse I am willing to share any info if someone else wants to have a go with it! (The zooming part is tricky, the rest can be found if looking deep into the messages of the MobileRead forum, where I found it.)
