The PDF Type of this object |
| toArray | | public static String toArray(Vector v)(Code) | | This utility method returns a String containing an array definition
based on a Vector containing PDFObjects
Parameters:
v - Vector containing PDFObjects String containing a PDF array |
| toString | | public String toString()(Code) | | Returns the unique serial number in PDF format
the serial number in PDF format |
| write | | abstract public void write(OutputStream os) throws IOException(Code) | | Writes the object to the output stream.
This method must be overidden.

Parameters:
os - OutputStream to write to
