Hi,

Is there a way to add a triangle to a page or can you only add circles and rectangles?

Thanks,

Jim

Hello Jim,

There is no direct page element like Rectangle or Circle to add triangle symbol to the PDF but you can use the Line page elements to draw a triangle. You can refer to the documentation on Line page element here. Also please note that it is not possible to fill the triangle using DynamicPDF for COM/ActiveX product. Below is the VBScript code sample to draw a triangle using Line page elements.

   Dim objDoc, objPage
   'Create Document object and set properties
   Set objDoc = WScript.CreateObject("DynamicPDF.Document")
   'Add a page to the document
   Set objPage = objDoc.AddPage()

   Dim MyLine1
   Set MyLine1 = objPage.AddLine(10, 10, 10, 100)

   Dim MyLine2
   Set MyLine2 = objPage.AddLine(10, 100, 100, 100)

   Dim MyLine3
   Set MyLine3 = objPage.AddLine(10, 10, 100, 100)

   'Output the Document to a file
   objDoc.DrawToFile("C:\HelloWorld.pdf")
