I am trying to to walk though the tree of PdfItem objects in an existing PDF document using PDFSharp in c#. I want to create a hierarchy of all the objects as I go along -- similar to what the "PDF Explorer" example does -- but I want it to be a tree instead of a flat list of all the objects.

I can't seem to get PdfSharp to show a picture for this annotation. It doesn't have the PdfAnnotation.Icon property, so I can't set that.

I'm using PDFSharp to generate pdf documents and these documents (invoices) contain tables. Is there any way to determine the height of a table?
