I want to print remarks onto the left margin of a report as thats the only place that has space. I want to turn the alignment of the text vertically.

Hello,

Thanks for your reply.
Do you want to add annotation on the left margin of your PDF document, instead of printing it with a printer? If so, please refer to the following code. However, there is no way to set the text direction of the annotation to vertical. Our Spire.PDF follows PDF standard. And I have verified that Adobe does not support this either.

Code: Select all

    PdfDocument pdf = new PdfDocument();
    pdf.LoadFromFile("input.pdf");
    PdfPageBase page = pdf.Pages[0];

    //initialize a PdfFreeTextAnnotation
    RectangleF rect = new RectangleF(0, 40, 40, 100);
    PdfFreeTextAnnotation textAnnotation = new PdfFreeTextAnnotation(rect);
    //specify content
    textAnnotation.Text = "Free Text Annotation";
    //set properties of annotation
    PdfFont font = new PdfFont(PdfFontFamily.TimesRoman, 10);
    PdfAnnotationBorder border = new PdfAnnotationBorder(1f);
    textAnnotation.Font = font;
    textAnnotation.Border = border;
    textAnnotation.BorderColor = Color.Black;
    textAnnotation.LineEndingStyle = PdfLineEndingStyle.Circle;
    textAnnotation.Opacity = 0.8f;
    //add annotation to page
    page.AnnotationsWidget.Add(textAnnotation);
    pdf.SaveToFile("out.pdf");

Or if I misunderstood, please provide your input file as well as your desired output for our further investigation. You could sent them to us([email protected]) via email.
