PdfParagraph class
Namespace: PdfNetStack.Drawing
Assembly: PdfNetStack.dll
Package: PdfNetStack
Rich text to lay out: spans of text, each with its own style, and how lines are arranged. Line feeds (\n, \r\n) and U+2029 start a new line; tabs advance four spaces; soft hyphens (U+00AD) mark where a word may break, showing a hyphen when it does.

Section titled “Examples”var body = new PdfTextStyle(inter, 11);
var p = new PdfParagraph { Alignment = PdfTextAlignment.Justify, LineHeight = 1.5 }
.Add("Invoices are due within ", body)
.Add("30 days", body with { Font = interBold });
PdfTextLayout layout = g.DrawText(p, 50, 100, 300); // returns the lines and the height usedProperties

Section titled “Property Value”Hyphenator
Section titled “ Hyphenator”Breaks words at the line’s end with a hyphen where this hyphenator allows it, as lines fill. Null, the default, breaks only between words and at soft hyphens. It applies to the whole paragraph, whatever the spans; for text in several languages, insert soft hyphens span by span with InsertSoftHyphens. Text keeps the words as they are, and a break is not offered inside a ligature, which would have to reshape it.

Section titled “Property Value”Kashida
Section titled “ Kashida”With Justify, right to left Arabic script lines are justified by elongating joined letters with tatweel (kashida) before spaces widen: one elongation per word, up to three tatweel widths, at the point Arabic typography prefers (after seen and sad, before a final heh, dal, alef, lam, kaf, reh or waw, else the last join of the word). Fonts without a tatweel glyph justify with spaces only. Off by default.
