Source Code
This is the whole source code needed to create the PDF file:
// Create a new PDF document
PdfDocument document = new PdfDocument();
// Create a font
XFont font = new XFont("Times", 25, XFontStyle.Bold);
PageSize[] pageSizes = (PageSize[])Enum.GetValues(typeof(PageSize));
foreach (PageSize pageSize in pageSizes)
{
if (pageSize == PageSize.Undefined)
continue;
// One page in Portrait...
PdfPage page = document.AddPage();
page.Size = pageSize;
XGraphics gfx = XGraphics.FromPdfPage(page);
gfx.DrawString(pageSize.ToString(), font, XBrushes.DarkRed,
new XRect(0, 0, page.Width, page.Height),
XStringFormats.Center);
// ... and one in Landscape orientation.
page = document.AddPage();
page.Size = pageSize;
page.Orientation = PageOrientation.Landscape;
gfx = XGraphics.FromPdfPage(page);
gfx.DrawString(pageSize + " (landscape)", font,
XBrushes.DarkRed, new XRect(0, 0, page.Width, page.Height),
XStringFormats.Center);
}
// Save the document...
const string filename = "PageSizes_tempfile.pdf";
document.Save(filename);
// ...and start a viewer.
Process.Start(filename);
