Remarks

A stream object consists of a dictionary followed by a sequence of bytes. A stream may be of unlimited length. Objects with potentially large amounts of data, such as images, are represented as streams.

An example of a stream object in a PDF file:

<< /Filter /FlateDecode /Length 88 >>
        stream
        ...
        endstream

.

WARNING: Changes to a low-level PDF stream object might break the owning PDF document.

Use high-level Docotic.Pdf API to edit a document. Don't edit a low-level PDF stream object unless you completely understand what you are doing.

The Docotic.Pdf Library Documentation page contains links to articles, guides, and sample code.
