Class PDFDecoder

java.lang.Object

org.openpdf.renderer.decode.PDFDecoder

public class PDFDecoder
extends Object

A PDF Decoder encapsulates all the methods of decoding a stream of bytes based on all the various encoding methods.

You should use the decodeStream() method of this object rather than using any of the decoders directly.

Method Details

isLastFilter

public static boolean isLastFilter(PDFObject dict,
 Set<String> filters)
                            throws IOException

Throws:

IOException

decodeStream

public static ByteBuffer decodeStream(PDFObject dict,
 ByteBuffer streamBuf,
 Set<String> filterLimits)
                               throws IOException

decode a byte[] stream using the filters specified in the object's dictionary (passed as argument 1).

Parameters:

dict - the dictionary associated with the stream

streamBuf - the data in the stream, as a byte buffer

Throws:

IOException

isEncrypted

public static boolean isEncrypted(PDFObject dict)
                           throws IOException

Determines whether a stream is encrypted or not; note that encodings (e.g., Flate, LZW) are not considered encryptions.

Parameters:

dict - the stream dictionary

Returns:

whether the stream is encrypted

Throws:

IOException - if the stream dictionary can't be read
