I'm trying to just create a page with some text on it (just like the hello world example, but my string is a lot longer. I put some newlines in there, but it didn't work right, the text just went off the page and newlines appeared as the block character.

Is there anything i can do? Should i use some other API method to do this?



Code:

// Create a new PDF document
            PdfDocument document = new PdfDocument();

            XPdfFontOptions options = new XPdfFontOptions(PdfFontEncoding.Unicode, PdfFontEmbedding.Always);
            XFont font = new XFont("Arial", 20, XFontStyle.Bold, options);

            string text = this.Name;

            //Make multiline if longer than 10 characters
            if (text.Length > 10)
            {
               text = text.Replace(" ", "\n");
            }

            for (int i = 1; i <= this.Pages; i++)
            {

               PdfPage page = document.AddPage();
               
               XGraphics gfx = XGraphics.FromPdfPage(page);

               gfx.DrawString(text + "\nPage " + i.ToString(), font, XBrushes.Black,
                 new XRect(0, 0, page.Width, page.Height),
                 XStringFormats.Center);

            }

            document.Save(targetdirectory + "\\" + filename);
