'Declaration Public Overloads Sub Save( _ ByVal fileName As String, _ ByVal containers() As AnnContainer, _ ByVal format As AnnCodecsFormat _ )

function Leadtools.Annotations.AnnCodecs.Save(String,AnnContainer[],AnnCodecsFormat)( fileName , containers , format )
public: void Save( String^ fileName, array<AnnContainer^>^ containers, AnnCodecsFormat format )
This method saves the entire array of AnnContainer as a multipage annotation file, with each page corresponding to one of the AnnContainer. If fileName already exists, it will be overwritten. If containers contain many AnnContainer, then this method will create the multipage annotation file much faster than repeated calls to Save(String,AnnContainer,AnnCodecsFormat,Int32,AnnCodecsSavePageMode)
This method only supports the AnnCodecsFormat.Xml format. All other AnnCodecsFormat are not supported.
For more information, refer to Annotation Files.
