Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

// Below are four examples of shapes that we can insert into our documents.
// 1 -  Dotted, horizontal, half-transparent red line
// with an arrow on the left end and a diamond on the right end:
Shape arrow = new Shape(doc, ShapeType.Line);
arrow.Width = 200;
arrow.Stroke.Color = Color.Red;
arrow.Stroke.StartArrowType = ArrowType.Arrow;
arrow.Stroke.StartArrowLength = ArrowLength.Long;
arrow.Stroke.StartArrowWidth = ArrowWidth.Wide;

// 2 -  Thick black diagonal line with rounded ends:

// 4 -  Arrow with a flipped orientation filled in with the Aspose logo:
