Error CS0012 The type "'FontFamily'" is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly 'PresentationCore

You are using a version of PDFsharp that relies on GDI+ and your project may have to reference System.Drawing e.g. when you need fonts, pens, brushes, and such.
To avoid references to GDI+, you can use the WPF build of PDFsharp:
https://www.nuget.org/packages/PDFsharp-wpf/1.50.4845-RC2a
When using the WPF build you also have to add references to WPF when it comes to using fonts, pens, brushes, &c.
You need a reference to PresentationCore for the WPF build.
PDFsharp 1.50 was not designed to work with .NET Core and may not work on other platforms than Windows.

Are there any code examples left?
