Known Direct Subclasses Polygon
Polygon | The Polygon class.

## Class Overview

Polyline annotations (PDF 1.5) display (open or closed) shapes of multiple edges on the page. Such polylines may have any number of vertices connected by straight lines. For open polylines, which is the default type of polylines, the first and last vertex are not implicitly connected. Closed polylines are polygons, whose first and last vertex are connected.
