            Paragraph paragraph = section.AddParagraph();

            //Append a Textbox to paragraph
            TextBox tb = paragraph.AppendTextBox(120, 200);

            //Set the position of Textbox
            tb.Format.HorizontalOrigin = HorizontalOrigin.Page;
            tb.Format.HorizontalPosition = 50;
            tb.Format.VerticalOrigin = VerticalOrigin.Page;
            tb.Format.VerticalPosition = 50;
