PDF Analyzer is a programm to view objects of a PDF file and to export images.

A PDF file is a collection of objects, of which each has an objectnumber and a generation number. The combination of objectnumber and generation number is unique in a PDF file. The objects are not in a particular order.

Some objects have a type and a subtype. Images for example have the type "Xobject" and the subtype "Image".

Each object has a dictionary with properties of the object. Images have the "Width" and "Height" property.

Some objects have streams which are long strings of binary data. Most time, streams are compressed, or "filtered". The filter is specified in the dictionary.
