Example XojoScript:

If PdfStart("testfile.pdf") > 0 Then

// Set top top-left as 0,0 coordinates

PdfSetPageCoordsTopDown

Dim x,y As Double = 30.0

// Set output font and color

PdfSetFont("Arial","Regular",10.0)

Call PdfSetFillColor("&c00000000") // black textcolor

// write a location and current date

Call PdfWriteText(x,y,"Page 1")

// Set new vertical position

y = y + 15.0

// draw a horizontal line underneath

Call PdfLineDraw(x,y,x+530,y)

// Finalize PDF

Call PdfcloseFile

// Open PDF in default viewer

Call Pdflaunch
