DynaPDFMBS.TestGlyphsAnsi(FontHandle as Integer, Text as string) as Integer
Function:
The function checks whether all glyphs of the text are available in the specified font.
The return value is the position of the first missing glyph, or -1 if all glyphs are available.
If the font uses a mixed 8/16 bit CJK code page that requires a conversion to Unicode (a code page that ends with "_Uni"), then the return value corresponds to the converted Unicode string and not to the CJK input string.
The text parameter is converted to ANSI.

DynaPDFMBS.WatermarkAnnot(PosX as Double, PosY as Double, Width as Double, Height as Double) as Integer
Function:
Creates a Watermark annotation.
Example:
Notes:
Watermark annotations have no interactive elements like other annotation types. This property is useful in many cases because it is usually not possible to select or change the contents of a watermark annotation in viewer applications.
The annotation has no appearance after it was created. Call CreateAnnotAP to create an appearance template for the annotation. After the appearance template was created you can draw text, images or vector graphics into it. The template must be closed with EndTemplate when finished. It is also possible to import an external page or EMF contents into the template.
Watermark annotations can be shared on multiple pages. To place the annotation on other pages call AddAnnotToPage.
If the function succeeds the return value is the annotation handle, a value greater or equal zero. If the function fails the return value is a negative error code.
| Type | Topic | Plugin | Version | macOS | Windows | Linux | iOS | Targets |
| method | DynaPDF | MBS DynaPDF Plugin | 17.0 | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | All |
Example:
// create watermark annotation
Dim AnnotHandle As Integer = pdf.WatermarkAnnot(100, 100, 300, 200)
// it's empty initially
// so we create an annotation appearance stream
Dim x As Integer = pdf.CreateAnnotAP(AnnotHandle)
// set a color and draw rectangle
Call pdf.SetFillColor(&cFF7777)
Call pdf.Rectangle 0, 0, 300, 200, pdf.kfmFill
Call pdf.SetStrokeColor(&c000000)
Call pdf.SetFillColor(&c000000)
Call pdf.SetFont("Helvetica", pdf.kfsBold, 30)
Call pdf.WriteText(20, 20, "Hello World")
// close template
Call pdf.EndTemplate
