Dim basePoints As Point() = inkWord.GetBaseline()

' Convert to pixel coordinates
Dim indexBase As Integer
For indexBase = 0 To basePoints.Length - 1
    theRenderer.InkSpaceToPixel(panelGraphics, basePoints(indexBase))
Next indexBase
panelGraphics.DrawLines(New Pen(Color.Purple), basePoints)

Point[] basePoints = inkWord.GetBaseline();
// Convert to pixel coordinates
for (int i = 0; i < basePoints.Length; i++)
