Text rise specifies the distance to move the baseline up or down from its default location.

C# : 

using PDFMosaic;
using System.Drawing;
 
namespace TextRise
{
  class TextRise
  {
    static void Main()
    {
      PDFDocument document = new PDFDocument();
      document.Pages.Add(new PDFPage(PDFPaperFormat.A4));
      PDFCanvas canvas = document.Pages[0].Canvas;
 
      PDFFont font = new PDFFont("Arial", 16);
      PDFBrush brush = new PDFSolidBrush();
      PDFStringFormat sf = new PDFStringFormat();
 
      float x = 0;      
      canvas.DrawString("Text rise 0 ", font, brush, x, 100, sf);
 
      sf.Rise = -font.Size / 2;
      x += font.GetTextWidth("Text rise 0 ");
      canvas.DrawString("Text rise -8 ", font, brush, x, 100, sf);
 
      sf.Rise = -font.Size / 4;
      x += font.GetTextWidth("Text rise -8 ");
      canvas.DrawString("Text rise -4 ", font, brush, x, 100, sf);
      x += font.GetTextWidth("Text rise -4 ");
 
      PDFPen pen = new PDFSolidPen();
      canvas.DrawLine(pen, 0, font.Size * 1.5f + 3 + 100, x, font.Size * 1.5f + 3 + 100);
 
      document.Save("TextRise.pdf", true);
    }
  }
}

 

Visial Basic.NET : 

Imports PDFMosaic
Imports System.Drawing
 
Module TextRise
  Sub Main()
    Dim document As PDFDocument = New PDFDocument()
    document.Pages.Add(New PDFPage(PDFPaperFormat.A4))
    Dim canvas As PDFCanvas = document.Pages(0).Canvas
 
    Dim font As PDFFont = New PDFFont("Arial", 16)
    Dim brush As PDFBrush = New PDFSolidBrush()
    Dim sf As PDFStringFormat = New PDFStringFormat()
 
    Dim x As Single = 0
    canvas.DrawString("Text rise 0 ", font, brush, x, 100, sf)
 
    sf.Rise = -font.Size / 2
    x += font.GetTextWidth("Text rise 0 ")
    canvas.DrawString("Text rise -8 ", font, brush, x, 100, sf)
 
    sf.Rise = -font.Size / 4
    x += font.GetTextWidth("Text rise -8 ")
    canvas.DrawString("Text rise -4 ", font, brush, x, 100, sf)
    x += font.GetTextWidth("Text rise -4 ")
 
    Dim pen As New PDFSolidPen()
    canvas.DrawLine(pen, 0, font.Size * 1.5F + 3 + 100, x, font.Size * 1.5F + 3 + 100)
 
    document.Save("TextRise.pdf", True)
  End Sub
End Module
