Set pdfDocument = CreateObject("Bytescout.PDF.Document")
pdfDocument.RegistrationName = "demo"
pdfDocument.RegistrationKey = "demo"

Set comHelpers = pdfDocument.ComHelpers

' Add page
Set page1 = comHelpers.CreatePage(comHelpers.PAPERFORMAT_A4)
pdfDocument.Pages.Add(page1)

' Load ICC color profile
Set iccProfile = comHelpers.CreateICCBasedColorspace("USWebCoatedSWOP.icc")
' Create profiled color brush
Set iccColor = comHelpers.CreateColorICC((iccProfile), comHelpers.CreateColorCMYK(0, 100, 0, 0))
Set iccBrush = comHelpers.CreateSolidBrush((iccColor))
' Draw a circle using the brush
page1.Canvas.DrawCircle_2 (iccBrush), 200, 200, 100

' Save document to file
