Hi Raviranjan,

Thanks for your inquiry. Please use the following code snippet to insert the line in the Primary header of current section. The DocumentBuilder.MoveToHeaderFooter method moves the cursor to the beginning of a header or footer in the current section.

You can move the cursor to any place in Document and insert a Shape node of your choice by using the code like below:

DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder();
builder.MoveToHeaderFooter(HeaderFooterType.HeaderPrimary);
Shape line = new Shape(builder.Document, ShapeType.Line);
line.Width = 3 * 72;
builder.InsertNode(line);
builder.Document.Save(MyDir + "Out.docx");

Please feel free to ask if you have any question about Aspose.Words, we will be happy to help you.
