// This is a base class for QPDF Document Helper classes. Document helpers are classes that provide
// a convenient, higher-level API for accessing document-level structures within a PDF file.
// Document helpers are always initialized with a reference to a QPDF object, and the object can
// always be retrieved. The intention is that you may freely intermix use of document helpers with
// the underlying QPDF object unless there is a specific comment in a specific helper method that
// says otherwise. The pattern of using helper objects was introduced to allow creation of higher
// level helper functions without polluting the public interface of QPDF.
