==Source Code==

This is the whole source code needed to create the PDF file:
{s:beginCsharp}
// Create a new PDF document
PdfDocument document = new PdfDocument();
&nbsp;
// Create a font
XFont font = new XFont("Times", 25, XFontStyle.Bold);
&nbsp;
PageSize&#0091;&#0093; pageSizes = (PageSize&#0091;&#0093;)Enum.GetValues(typeof(PageSize));
foreach (PageSize pageSize in pageSizes)
{
  if (pageSize == PageSize.Undefined)
    continue;
&nbsp;
  // One page in Portrait...
  PdfPage page = document.AddPage();
  page.Size = pageSize;
  XGraphics gfx = XGraphics.FromPdfPage(page);
  gfx.DrawString(pageSize.ToString(), font, XBrushes.DarkRed,
    new XRect(0, 0, page.Width, page.Height),
    XStringFormats.Center);
&nbsp;
  // ... and one in Landscape orientation.
  page = document.AddPage();
  page.Size = pageSize;
  page.Orientation = PageOrientation.Landscape;
  gfx = XGraphics.FromPdfPage(page);
  gfx.DrawString(pageSize + " (landscape)", font,
    XBrushes.DarkRed, new XRect(0, 0, page.Width, page.Height),
    XStringFormats.Center);
}
&nbsp;
// Save the document...
const string filename = "PageSizes_tempfile.pdf";
document.Save(filename);
// ...and start a viewer.
Process.Start(filename);
