# There are two drawing primitives in Prawn: <code>fill</code> and
# <code>stroke</code>.
#
# These are the methods that actually draw stuff on the document. All the other
# drawing shapes like <code>rectangle</code>, <code>circle</code> or
# <code>line_to</code> define drawing paths. These paths need to be either
# stroked or filled to gain form on the document.
#
# Calling these methods without a block will act on the drawing path that
# has been defined prior to the call.
#
# Calling with a block will act on the drawing path set within the
# block.
#
# Most of the methods which define drawing paths have methods of the same name
# starting with stroke_ and fill_ which create the drawing path and then stroke
# or fill it.
