Implementations

impl<'a> Obj<'a>

pub fn primitive<T: Primitive>(self, value: T)

Write a primitive object.

pub fn array(self) -> Array<'a>

Write an array.

pub fn dict(self) -> Dict<'a>

Write a dictionary.

pub fn start<W: Writer<'a>>(self) -> W

For example, using this, you could write a Type 1 font directly into a page’s resource directionary.

use pdf_writer::{PdfWriter, Ref, Name, writers::Type1Font};

let mut w = PdfWriter::new();
w.page(Ref::new(1))
    .resources()
    .fonts()
    .insert(Name(b"F1"))
    .start::<Type1Font>()
    .base_font(Name(b"Helvetica"));
