Use this property to specify the rectangle the text box occupies. The PdfAnnotationFacade.Rectangle property returns the annotation rectangle, which includes the text box and a callout (if specified).

The code sample below resizes the text box rectangle:

using DevExpress.Pdf;
using System.Linq;

using (PdfDocumentProcessor processor = new PdfDocumentProcessor())
{
    // Load a document
    processor.LoadDocument("..\\..\\Document.pdf");

    // Access page properties
    PdfPageFacade pageFacade = processor.DocumentFacade.Pages[0];

    // Retrieve all free text annotations
    var freeTextAnnotations = pageFacade.Annotations.Where
            (annotation => annotation.Type == PdfAnnotationType.FreeText);
    foreach (PdfFreeTextAnnotationFacade freeText in freeTextAnnotations)
    {
        // Resize the text box:
        PdfPoint center = freeText.Rectangle.Center;
        freeText.TextRectangle = new PdfRectangle(center.X-15, center.Y-15, center.X+15, center.Y+15);
    }
    // Save the result
    processor.SaveDocument("..\\..\\Result.pdf");
}
