The module setups a name space for the % dictionary names and offers some commands to output dictionaries. % % The dictionaries work in many respects % like property lists with a few PDF specific changes: % \begin{itemize} % \item The keys are always converted with \cs{str_convert_pdfname:n} % to get a correct PDF name; % \item a key with a empty value can not be added, it will be ignored; % \item there is a dedicated function to output the property as space % separated list with keys with slash: \texttt{/key1 value1 /key2 value2}. % \end{itemize} % Local and global dictionaries can be created. % % \subsection{User Commands} % \begin{function}[updated = 2020-12-03] % {\pdfdict_new:n} % \begin{syntax} % \cs{pdfdict_new:n} \Arg{dictionary name} % \end{syntax} % This function create a new local or global dictionary. Which one depends on % \meta{dictionary name}: If it begins with the standard |g| the dictionary is global, % with |l| the dictionary is local, other starting chars will give an error. % It is recommended to begin the name in the standard expl3 naming scheme % with one or two underscores and a module name, % so |g_module_XXXX| or |g__module_XXXX|. % \end{function} % % \begin{function}[added = 2020-06-16,updated = 2020-12-03] % {\pdfdict_set_eq:nn,\pdfdict_gset_eq:nn} % \begin{syntax} % \cs{pdfdict_set_eq:nn} \Arg{local dictionary name_1} \Arg{dictionary name_2}\\ % \cs{pdfdict_gset_eq:nn} \Arg{global dictionary name_1}\Arg{dictionary name_2} % \end{syntax} % This functions copy \meta{dictionary name_2} into % \meta{local/global dictionary name_1} locally or globally.

It will be stored % with \cs{str_convert_pdfname:n}, so will be automatically correctly escaped in case % it contains slashes, spaces or other chars not allowed in a PDF name. % \meta{value} should be a valid PDF value for this name in the % target dictionary. The value is \emph{neither} converted \emph{nor} escaped automatically. % If the value is blank nothing is added to the dictionary. % % When adding a value keep in mind that the expansion behaviour % of the backends differ. Some backends expand a % value always fully when writing to the PDF, with other backends commands % could end as strings in the PDF. This makes controlling the % expansion quite tricky. It is better to not rely on % \meta{value} to be expanded nor not expanded by the backend commands. % \end{function} % % \begin{function}[EXP,added = 2020-12-04] % { \pdfdict_item:nn, \pdfdict_item:ne } % \begin{syntax} % \cs{pdfdict_item:nn} \Arg{key} \Arg{value} % \end{syntax} % A simple command to output key-value as |/key value|.
