You might have noticed that you have to add the text into Fragment then add the Fragment into TextParagraph instead of simply add the text into TextParagraph. By doing so, a TextParagraph is allowed to have texts with different fonts and styles. This design increases the flexibility of TextParagraph.

Here is the sample of saving document:

using( FileStream file = new FileStream( @"..\..\HelloWorld.pdf", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write ) )
{
    document.Write( file );
}
