Hi Haikal Khair, 
 
We do not provide support to draw or manipulate shape annotations in the PDF document in Windows Forms platform. But we do support drawing and manipulating shape annotations in our PDF viewer for WPF and we can use PDF viewer for WPF in Windows Forms application by hosting method in Windows Forms platform.  
 
Please follow the below KB for using PDF viewer for WPF in WF application.

Okay thanks, that worked even though there are some minor bugs.

Now I have two Problems, first I want to add HTMLtext to an existing document, PdfLoadedPage ist not accepted though. Second: Is it possible to add a Backgroundcolor to Text?

Hi Haikal Khair, 
 
At present, PDF viewer does not support adding texts in the PDF documents. We have logged feature requests for providing the support for the same. We will implement these features in any of our upcoming releases.  
 
Can you please confirm us whether your requirement is similar to the adobe textbox behavior or not? 
 
Please refer the below image which is taken from adobe reader to confirm the requirement:
