How to transfer GdPicture/XMP annotations from one jpg file to another. 
'We assume that the GdViewer1 control has been properly integrated

'and your document has been properly displayed as well.

            

'Assuming you have already annotated the displayed jpg document.

Dim annotStream As System.IO.MemoryStream = New System.IO.MemoryStream()

If GdViewer1.SaveAnnotationsToXMP(annotStream) = GdPictureStatus.OK Then

    GdViewer1.CloseDocument()

    If (GdViewer1.DisplayFromFile("test.jpg") <> GdPictureStatus.OK) OrElse

       (GdViewer1.LoadAnnotationsFromXMP(annotStream) <> GdPictureStatus.OK) Then

        MessageBox.Show("Error! : " + GdViewer1.GetStat().ToString(), "GdViewer.SaveAnnotationsToXMP")

    End If

End If

annotStream.Dispose()
//We assume that the GdViewer1 control has been properly integrated
