-The namespaces from VisualWorks are implemented by symbol dictionaries in Gemstone. Therefore, the ''PDFtalkLibrary'' contains the dictionary ''PDFtalk'' with all PDF classes. The ''PDFtalk'' dictionary in turn contains the ''Fonts'' dictionary which includes the ''OpenType'' and ''CFF'' dictionaries. the following slide of the ESUG 2017 presentation shows the structure:+The namespaces from VisualWorks are implemented by symbol dictionaries in Gemstone.
