	Objects
	Basic object types from which a whole PDF file is composed.

	Cross-reference tables and streams
	The cross-reference table contains information that permits random access to indirect objects within the file so that the entire file need not be read to locate any particular object.

	Name constants
	Often used name constant definitions.

Detailed Description

Accessing file thourgh list of objects such as ArrayObjectHandle or DictionaryObjectHandle.

An in-depth knowledge about PDF file format is strongly recommended as many functions are a direct reference to a PDF specification.

You might want to start with FileHandle, which is the low-level counterpart of the DocumentHandle.

It's primary use is for missing or misbehaving functionality in the High-level document interface.

This interface shall provide syntactic correctness for a file. However, the user is responsible for the semantic correctness.

It allows you to create files, that are syntactically correct, but are invalid in terms of PDF document semantics.
