I copied this program from the link:

Dim pdf As PdfDocument
pdf.Initialize
pdf.StartPage(595, 842) 'A4 size
pdf.Canvas.DrawLine(2, 2, 593 , 840, Colors.Blue, 4)
pdf.Canvas.DrawText("Hello", 100, 100, Typeface.DEFAULT_BOLD, 30 / GetDeviceLayoutValues.Scale , Colors.Yellow, "CENTER")
pdf.FinishPage
Dim out As OutputStream = File.OpenOutput(File.DirRootExternal, "1.pdf", False)
pdf.WriteToStream(out)
out.Close
pdf.Close

But the library?

Did you read the post by Erel? Check at the end of his post and you will see the library attached.

Hi @moster67
Why when you write "Hello" and the instruction indicates "Center", "Hello" is not centered?
Thanks

Never used this library. Sorry.
But I guess you need to position x and y values in relation to the canvas size set with pdf.startpage in order to put the text where you want.
