The code sample below creates a hexagon:

C#

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

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

    // Define hexagon vertices
    PdfPoint point1 = new PdfPoint(150, 150);
    PdfPoint point2 = new PdfPoint(140, 160);
    PdfPoint point3 = new PdfPoint(150, 170);
    PdfPoint point4 = new PdfPoint(160, 170);
    PdfPoint point5 = new PdfPoint(170, 160);
    PdfPoint point6 = new PdfPoint(160, 150);
    PdfPoint[] points = new PdfPoint[] { point1, point2, point3, point4, point5, point6 };

    // Create a hexagon annotation
    PdfPolygonAnnotationFacade hexagon = pageFacade.AddPolygonAnnotation(points);
    hexagon.Author = "Cardle Anita W";

    // Save the result
    processor.SaveDocument("..\\..\\Result.pdf");
}

VB.NET

Using processor As New PdfDocumentProcessor()
  ' Load a document

  ' Access the first page properties
  Dim pageFacade As PdfPageFacade = processor.DocumentFacade.Pages(0)

  ' Define hexagon vertices
  Dim point1 As New PdfPoint(150, 150)
