This is a fork of http://sourceforge.net/projects/jpodlib/ as development seems to be frozen.
We're providing some bug fixes along with deployments to maven.
CDS (Common Data Structure) defines higher level data structures or types on top
of COS types that are used all over the PDF spec.
Examples of such data structures that are no longer COS "primitives"
(like strings and numbers) or "composites" (like arrays or dictionaries) but have
already domain specific behavior are the date or rectangle object.
The CDS objects are implemented as wrappers on COS objects. Every change is
reflected immediately in the implementation (COS) layer and vice versa.
