Enum Object 

pub enum Object {
    Null,
    Bool(bool),
    Integer(i64),
    Real(f64),
    Name(String),
    LiteralString(Vec<u8>),
    HexString(Vec<u8>),
    Array(Vec<Object>),
    Dict(Dict),
    Reference(ObjectId),
    Stream(Stream),
}

A PDF “any” value — every primitive plus the composite ones.

Round 1 keeps the variant set tight; future rounds (text, encryption, outlines) can extend without breaking writer-only call sites.

Variants

Null

Bool(bool)

Integer(i64)

Real(f64)

Name(String)

PDF Name object (/Foo). The leading slash is added by the serializer; values must use the unescaped name characters (ISO 32000-1 §7.3.5 — printable ASCII excluding the delimiters).

LiteralString(Vec<u8>)

Literal string (...) — bytes go through PDF escape rules.

HexString(Vec<u8>)

Hexadecimal string <...> — used when content might confuse the literal-string parser (e.g. images embedded inline).

Array(Vec<Object>)

Dict(Dict)

Reference(ObjectId)

Indirect reference (<n> <gen> R). Generation is always 0 in the writer’s output (objects never get re-released).

Stream(Stream)

Stream object — dictionary describing the payload + the bytes.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Object

fn clone(&self) -> Object

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Object

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.
