 The {{pdf:pdf32000_2008.pdf|PDF specification}} is extensive. The implementation covers the core mechanisms to read and write PDF objects in a conforming way. This is comparable to the virtual machine and core classes in Smalltalk. Many of the PDF features and possibilities are implemented by sets of PDF types and a clear definition of their structure and interplay. This compares to class libraries in Smalltalk. The {{pdf:pdf32000_2008.pdf|PDF specification}} is extensive.
