If you are building this solution as a server based application, then
you cannot use the Acrobat SDK to run any of those operations, it is
not licensed to be run on a server. If this *is* a server-based
solution, you will need to look at licensing a PDF library of some
sort that will allow you to create annotations on the fly (PDFlib,
TallPDF.NET, Adobe PDF Library).

If it's a client based solution, then you can use the JavaScript
objects/methods to create your annotations (or notes). I suggest
looking at the 'addAnnot' and 'addNewAnnot' methods in the Acrobat
JavaScript SDK.

All the objects available in Acrobat JavaScript can be accessed from
VB/C# via IAC (Interapplication Communication). There's a file in the
Acrobat SDK with more details on this (I think it's called
VBJavascript.pdf or something similar).

I hope this helps...

The Acrobat SDK is not licensed for the server side usage.

Also, i forgot to mention a free C# PDF Library to check out.
iTextSharp -- it's a port of iText (Java PDF Library), and it allows
you to add annotations to PDFs (on top of lots of other cool stuff).

If it's a server based solution you're building, then you could
possibly integrate this into an application to do what you're after
(as you can't use the Acrobat SDK).

See here -> http://itextsharp.sourceforge.net/tutorial/ch03.html#annotation

Hope this helps...
