## Additional resources to understand the structure of PDF
A really basic overview of PDF is described here:
http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/livecycle/lc_pdf_overview_format.pdf
A more detailed file example:
http://gnupdf.org/Introduction_to_PDF
The PDF specification itself is an ISO and not free available. However, there is
a "PDF Reference" from Adobe:
http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/pdf/pdfs/pdf_reference_1-7.pdf
Recommanded chapters to read: "2. Overview", "3.4 File Structure",
"4.1 Graphics Objects" that lists the PDF commands.
