  • Constructor Details

    • PDFBuffer

      public PDFBuffer()
      Creates an empty pdf buffer.

  • Method Details

    • length

      public int length()
      Returns the current length of the buffer.

    • append

      public void append(byte[] buf)
      Appends an arbitrary byte array.

    • append

      public void append(byte[] buf, int off, int len)
      Appends an arbirary byte array with the given offset and length.

    • append

      public void append(PDFBuffer aBuffer)
      Appends another buffer.

    • toByteArray

      public byte[] toByteArray()
      Returns the buffer as a byte array.

    • println

      public void println()
      Adds a newline to the pdf buffer.

    • print

      public void print(Object anObj)
