Struct PdfReader 

pub struct PdfReader { /* private fields */ }

Reads an existing PDF file.

PdfReader parses the PDF’s cross-reference table and trailer to locate and resolve objects. The raw bytes and xref offset map are retained so that future enhancements (editing, field extraction, merging) can resolve arbitrary objects without re-reading the file.

Limitations

PDF 1.5+ cross-reference streams are not supported. Files that use them return PdfReadError::XrefStreamNotSupported.
