Summary description: Experimental package to extract and reinsert PDF annotations
Announcement text:
newpax allows to insert PDF in a document while preserving internal and external links. With lualatex it works in the document directly, other engines require to run a compilaton with lualatex or to call a lua script first. The package is based on and uses code from [pax](https://ctan.org/pkg/pax) by Heiko Oberdiek. It requires the new LaTeX PDF management from the pdfmanagement-testphase package.

newpax – Experimental package to extract and reinsert PDF annotations
The package is based on the pax package from Heiko Oberdiek. It offers a lua-based alternative to the java based pax.jar to extract the annotations from a PDF.
The resulting file can then be used together with pax.sty. It also offers an extended style which works with all three major engines.
