Any image might be useful to show how you can keep the ‘private folder’ (reached by clicking the URL field of the document) with the annotations to the document side by side with the pdf being annotated
This ‘private folder’ makes it easy to see what pages have already been annotated and any additional annotations added with the Annotation Pane show up automatically in the folder, sorted by page. I find this useful for a second or third review of documents when I want to remove superfluous annotations, add further annotations or supplement existing annotations with more detail or links to other documents. It also makes it very easy to select all the annotations to a document and use the Document Review pane script, to review the annotations’ metadata and update the spotlight comment summary.
(Sorry i cant pull of those neat little animated screenshots korm does !)

(just to be clear this only works if you generate your annotations using the Annotation Pane script. This is because the Annotation pane script keeps replicants of all annotations to a document in a ‘private’ folder linked to the document, irrespective of what folder you may put the annotation itself in. This is useful because you can move your annotations around in the folder structure, such as when you are developing an outline without breaking the relationship between the document and its annotations. If you use DT’s built in annotation template which keeps all annotations in a single file or Highlights, as korm describes in the post above this, which requires you to export your annotations into a folder in DT, you will have to manage these relationships yourself)
