    3. Call the Add method. Specify the ResourceRedactionAnnotation class.
    4. Call the Save method. Specify the output document path or stream.

using (Annotator annotator = new Annotator("input.pdf"))
{
	ResourcesRedactionAnnotation resourcesRedaction = new ResourcesRedactionAnnotation
    {
    	Box = new Rectangle(100, 100, 100, 100),
        CreatedOn = DateTime.Now,
        Message = "This is resources redaction annotation",
        PageNumber = 0,
        Replies = new List<Reply>
        {
        	new Reply
            {
            	Comment = "First comment",
                RepliedOn = DateTime.Now
            },
            new Reply
            {
            	Comment = "Second comment",
                RepliedOn = DateTime.Now
            }
        }
   };
   annotator.Add(resourcesRedaction);
   annotator.Save("result.pdf");
