How to find the source data (a feature class from Personal Geodatabase or File Geodatabase) geometry type is annotation (ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro based) or not?

Did you look into using the GeometryFilter, set to filter for Text?

@david_r​ This is working fine with File Geodatabase format. However, this is not working for Personal Geodatabase. Please refer to the enclosed screenshot.

If you believe this to be an error, you should probably contact your FME reseller or Safe support for assistance. But do keep in mind that the Personal Geodatabase format is on its way out and isn't supported in 64-bit ArcGIS, which I would assume also carries over to 64-bit FME, see https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/tool-errors-and-warnings/001001-010000/tool-errors-and-warnings-01301-01325-001324.htm

I'm mentioning this since the bookmark in the screenshot above indicates 64-bit FME.
