Namespace TallComponents.PDF.Shapes
Class Canvas
Each page has 4 canvasses: an underlay, a visual underlay, an overlay and a visual overlay, all of type Canvas. You can draw underneath or on top of a page by adding shapes to one of the 4 layer objects. The layers are non-creatable, and are retrieved through the [Visual]Underlay and [Visual]Overlay properties of a page object.
The underlay and overlay use the original coordinate system and don't respect page orientation and/or any clipping area. The visual underlay and visual overlay use a coordinate system that does respect page orientation and/or any clipping area. The visual layer will be placed exactly on the resulting visual area shown in a viewer (e.g. Acrobat Reader). Note: if no rotation and/or clipping is specified, the visual layer has the same result as the normal layer.
