Hi Caleb, 
 
Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support. 
 
We can create borders around the image by drawing the rectangle along with the same bounds of the image. We have created a sample for drawing borders around the image for your reference. Please refer the below code snippet and sample for further details. 
 




             
            //Create a new PDF document. 
            PdfDocument document = new PdfDocument(); 
 
            //Add a new PDF page. 
            PdfPage page = document.Pages.Add(); 
 
            PdfBitmap image = new PdfBitmap("../../Autumn Leaves.jpg"); 
 
            //Bounds of the image. 
            RectangleF bounds = new RectangleF (PointF.Empty, new SizeF(300, 500)); 
 
            //Draw image to PDF page. 
            page.Graphics.DrawImage(image, bounds); 
 
            //Create a new PDF pen. 
            PdfPen borderPen = new PdfPen(new PdfColor(System.Drawing.Color.Red)); 
 
            //Set pen width. 
            borderPen.Width = 2; 
 
            //Draw border around the image. 
            page.Graphics.DrawRectangle(borderPen, bounds); 
 
            //Save the document. 
            document.Save("output.pdf"); 
 
            //Close the document. 
            document.Close(true);
