Forum Moderation: original subject was "Here's some sample code", original location was "Feature Request".

I couldn't post it elsewhere, but thought this might be useful to others. You might want to include a modified version in your samples.

Code:
/*
   The CreatePDFFromTextStream is an example of using the PDFSharp libraries to render
   text files to PDF.  This particular example assumes text file output from a mainframe
   system where the report width is 132 columns.  In this example, the maximum number of
   lines before a Form Feed character is 106, so this code forces a new page after 108 lines.
 
    I hope this saves you some time,
