Defines a PDF polyline annotation.
Declaration
public class PolylineAnnotation extends UnclosedPathAnnotation
Remarks
The following code snippet draws a polyline annotation:

package pdf;

import com.devexpress.system.drawing.*;
import java.nio.channels.*;
import java.nio.file.*;
import java.util.List;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
try (FileChannel fileChannel = FileChannel.open(Path.of("Office-Floor-Plan.pdf"));
PdfDocument pdfDocument = new PdfDocument(fileChannel)) {
Page page = pdfDocument.getPages().getFirst();
createPolylineAnnotation(page);
try (WritableByteChannel channel =
FileChannel.open(Path.of("Result.pdf"),
StandardOpenOption.CREATE,
StandardOpenOption.WRITE,
StandardOpenOption.TRUNCATE_EXISTING)) {
pdfDocument.save(channel);
}
}
}
static void createPolylineAnnotation(Page page) {
List<PointF> vertices = List.of(
new PointF(140, 450),
new PointF(350, 450),
new PointF(500, 600));
PolylineAnnotation annotation = new PolylineAnnotation(vertices);
annotation.setTitle("HR");
annotation.setContent("Follow this path to the break room.");
annotation.setColor(PdfColor.getGreen());
annotation.setFinishLineEnding(AnnotationLineEndingStyle.OPEN_ARROW);
page.getAnnotations().add(annotation);
}
