"github_readme_excerpt": "CamlPDF\n=======\n\nCamlPDF is an OCaml library for reading, writing and modifying PDF files. It is\nthe basis of the \"CPDF\" command line tool and C/C++/Java/Python/.NET/JavaScript\nAPI, which is available at [http://www.coherentpdf.com/](http://www.coherentpdf.com/).\n\nLicense\n---\n\nCopyright Coherent Graphics Ltd 2007 - 2026. Released under the LGPL with\nspecial linking exception. See \"LICENSE\" for details.\n\nSee also original copyright and/or license statements in rijndael-alg-fst*,\nsha2*, miniz*, pdfafmdata.ml, and compresssor.\n\nTo Build\n---\n\nIf downloading from Github, obtain the correct source. This means choosing the\ntag for a particular version, such as \"v2.9.1\". The head of the master branch\nis unstable.\n\n1. Run \"make\". This will build camlpdf.a, camlpdf.cma, camlpdf.cmxa and the\n documentation (in doc/camlpdf/html).\n\n2. If your environment has \"ocamlfind\", \"make install\" will install the\n library. Otherwise, use the built outputs as you will.\n\nAlternatively, you can install the latest version with\n\n```\nopam install camlpdf\n```\n\nDocumentation\n---\n\nThe API documentation, which is built by the makefile in doc/camlpdf/html, can\nalso be accessed online at\n[http://www.coherentpdf.com/camlpdf](http://www.coherentpdf.com/camlpdf).\n\nThe file [introduction_to_camlpdf.pdf](introduction_to_camlpdf.pdf) will help\nthe beginner.\n\nSome level of knowledge of the PDF file format itself, which is large, may be\nrequired. Useful texts are the author\u0027s book:\n\n[http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920021483.do](http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920021483.do)\n\nand the ISO standard for PDF:\n\n[https://www.pdfa-inc.org/product/iso-32000-2-pdf-2-0-bundle-sponsored-access/](https://www.pdfa-inc.org/product/iso-32000-2-pdf-2-0-bundle-sponsored-access/)\n\nAcknowledgments\n---\n\nThe file [miniz.c](miniz.c) is a (very slightly modified) version of the\nminiz.c zlib implementation by Rich Geldreich, available here:\n\n[http://code.google.com/p/miniz/](http://code.google.com/p/miniz/)\n\nThe files [fl",
