I'm attempting to generate a PDF in a controller action and return it to the browser. The document generates and I can open it, but it's just a blank page. Any idea what I'm doing wrong here? Code is below.

Code:
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Print()
{
    PdfDocument doc = new PdfDocument();
    PdfPage page = doc.AddPage();
    page.Width = XUnit.FromInch(8.5);
    page.Height = XUnit.FromInch(11);
    XGraphics gfx = XGraphics.FromPdfPage(page);

    XSize size = gfx.PageSize;
    gfx.DrawString(
        "STUB",
        new XFont("Calibri", 60, XFontStyle.Regular),
        XBrushes.Black,
        new XRect(0, 0, size.Width, size.Height),
        XStringFormats.Center);

    FileContentResult response;
    using (MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream())
    {
        doc.Save(stream, false);
        response = new FileContentResult(stream.ToArray(), "application/pdf");
    }
    return response;
}


This is using v 1.50.5147.0 of PDFSharp in a .NET 4.6.2 project.

Maybe just a small detail is missing.

Here is a sample using ASP.NET:

Here is a sample using MVC and a different PDF library:
