Comments

To use this function:

Note: The text of the ruler object (which can be retrieved through L_AnnGetText) is the length + unit abbrev. The distance is reset every time the object is changed.

L_AnnGetText can be used to retreive the text from a Rich Text annotation object (ANNOBJECT_RTF). However, no formatting information will be preserved. To retrieve the text with formatting, see L_AnnGetTextRTF.
