PDF Syntax
Hi,
I'm looking for some information (books, tutorials, reference guides, etc) on the actual syntax used to layout pdf files.
For example -
0 1 0 rg
/F2 14 Tf
1 0 0 1 20 500 Tm
12 TL
(Hello) Tj T*
( I Like) Tj T*
( Ice Cream.) Tj T*
0 g

Another example -
http://[^ \n]*;0:0:1
ftp://[^ \n]*;0:0:1
mailto:[^ \n]*;145:20:226

I have already downloaded the Adobe PDF Reference manual but was hoping to find something a bit mor user friendly.
Does anyone have any ideas??
Thank you.
Simon.

It refers to the PerlStudio's PDFever script, located at http://www.perlstudio.de/pdfintro.html.

Thanks for your reply but it's not what I am looking for.
I need to find a book or something that explains the actual coding.
Thanks again.
Simon.
