Expand description

Parse a PDF object from input bytes.

This is the main entry point for parsing PDF objects. It handles all PDF object types:

  • Primitives: null, boolean, integer, real, string, name
  • Composites: array, dictionary
  • References: indirect object references (10 0 R)

§Example

use pdf_oxide::parser::parse_object;

let input = b"[ 1 2 /Name ]";
let (remaining, obj) = parse_object(input).unwrap();

§Errors

Returns Err if:

  • Input is not a valid PDF object
  • Nested structures are malformed (unclosed arrays/dicts)
  • Hex strings contain invalid hex digits
