    content streams

    Polda2 Community Member

      Hello,

      when a page content consists of an array of streams, is it valid to split a resource name across the streams?

       

      Example of valid streams:

      Stream 1:

      <Start Stream>

      ....

      /F143

      <End Stream>

       

      Stream 2:

      <Start Stream>

      1 Tf

      ...

      <End Stream>

       

      But is this valid?

      Stream 1:

      <Start Stream>

      ....

      /F14

      <End Stream>

       

      Stream 2:

      <Start Stream>

      3 1 Tf

      ...

      <End Stream>

       

      Should Acrobat handle also the second example and understand the complete stream "... /F143  1 Tf ..."?

       

      In PDF reference there are delimiter characters stated but it seems when <End Stream> is reached, the resource name is considered complete (which would be reasonable - I just need to know for sure so I can handle PDFs like this even though I do not expect to see such a PDF often).
