Note: You must call ApplyChanges before saving to apply object changes to the document
PDF Page Points
Objects on a PDF page are specified in points that originate at the bottom-left, i.e. when X,Y = (0,0). The top-left of the page is specified by (PageWidth, PageHeight).To convert PDF points to screen values, use PageToScr.
