/**
 * PdfDictionary is the Pdf dictionary object.
 * 
 * A dictionary is an associative table containing pairs of objects. The first element
 * of each pair is called the key and the second element is called the value.
 * Unlike dictionaries in the PostScript language, a key must be a PdfName.
 * A value can be any kind of PdfObject, including a dictionary. A dictionary is
 * generally used to collect and tie together the attributes of a complex object, with each
 * key-value pair specifying the name and value of an attribute.

 * A dictionary is represented by two left angle brackets (<<), followed by a sequence of
 * key-value pairs, followed by two right angle brackets (>>).

 * This object is described in the 'Portable Document Format Reference Manual version 1.3'
 * section 4.7 (page 40-41).
 *
