Constructor Detail

COSDocument

public COSDocument()
            throws IOException

Constructor. Uses the java.io.tmpdir value to create a file to store the streams.

getVersion

public float getVersion()

This will get the version of this PDF document.

Returns:

This documents version.

isEncrypted

public boolean isEncrypted()

This will tell if this is an encrypted document.

Returns:

true If this document is encrypted.

getEncryptionDictionary

public COSDictionary getEncryptionDictionary()

This will get the encryption dictionary if the document is encrypted or null if the document is not encrypted.

Returns:

The encryption dictionary.

setEncryptionDictionary

public void setEncryptionDictionary(COSDictionary encDictionary)

This will set the encryption dictionary, this should only be called when encypting the document.

Parameters:

encDictionary - The encryption dictionary.

getDocumentID

public COSArray getDocumentID()

This will get the document ID.

Returns:

The document id.

setDocumentID

public void setDocumentID(COSArray id)

                     throws IOException

This will get the document catalog. Maybe this should move to an object at PDFEdit level

Returns:

catalog is the root of all document activities

Throws:

IOException - If no catalog can be found.

getObjects

This will get the document trailer.

Returns:

the document trailer dict

setTrailer
