|
* Incorporate changes from Masamichi Hosoda <trueroad@trueroad.jp>
|
||||||
|
to properly handle signature in the following ways:
|
||||||
|
- Always represent /Contents in a signature dictionary as a hex
|
||||||
|
string
|
||||||
|
- Do not compress signature dictionaries when generating object
|
||||||
|
streams
|
||||||
|
- Do not encrypt/decrypt the /Contents field of the signature
|
||||||
|
dictionary when creating or reading encrypted files
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Incorporate changes from Masamichi Hosoda <trueroad@trueroad.jp>
|
||||||
|
to add additional methods for making it possible to gain deeper
|
||||||
|
insight into cross reference tables and object renumbering. These
|
||||||
|
new API calls make it possible for applications to go into PDF
|
||||||
|
files created by qpdf and make changes to them that go beyond
|
||||||
|
working with the PDF at the object level. The specific use case
|
||||||
|
for these changes was to write an external tool to perform digital
|
||||||
|
signature, but there could be other uses as well. New methods
|
||||||
|
include the following, all of which are described in their
|
||||||
|
respective headers:
|
||||||
|
- QPDF::getXRefTable()
|
||||||
|
- QPDFObjectHandle::getParsedOffset()
|
||||||
|
- QPDFWriter::getRenumberedObjGen(QPDFObjGen)
|
||||||
|
- QPDFWriter::getWrittenXRefTable()

Incorporate contribution from Masamichi Hosoda to
|

|
properly handle signature dictionaries by not including

|
them in object streams, formatting the

|
<literal>/Contents</literal> key has a hexadecimal
|
||||||
|
string, and excluding the <literal>/Contents</literal>
|
||||||
|
key from encryption and decryption.
