}

Draw line

pdf.SetLineWidth(2)
pdf.SetLineType("dashed")
pdf.Line(10, 30, 585, 30)

Draw oval

pdf.SetLineWidth(1)
pdf.Oval(100, 200, 500, 500)

Rotation text or image

pdf.SetX(100)
pdf.SetY(100)
pdf.Rotate(270.0, 100.0, 100.0)
pdf.Text("Hello...")
pdf.RotateReset() //reset

Set transparency for text

Read about transparency in pdf (page 320, section 11)

pdf.SetAlpha(alpha float64, blendMode string)

• alpha - value of transparency, can be between 0 and 1
• blendMode - default value is Normal - read about blendMode and kinds of its (page 325, section 11.3.5)
