Remarks

The AddSymbolCollection and ReplaceSymbolCollection may be used to augment and replace the symbol collection associated with an annotation feature class. Use extreme caution when using these methods--be aware that there may be existing annotation features in the annotation feature class that have annotation elements that may reference symbols by ID. Deleting the symbol for such an ID or replacing it with a different symbol may leave the geometry of the annotation feature out of phase with its symbol, resulting in subsequent problems during drawing and selection. These methods are for use by specialized data loaders that can guarantee the integrity of referenced symbols.
