Livre, pronounced[livʁ] (the french word for book)aims to be a type-safe utility for parsing PDF documents.

Please note that this is avery early release, primarily meant as a motivational toolfor me to work towards an actually working release in the near future.

This first version already provides a sufficient set of low-level utilities to extractall PDF primitive types in a type-safe manner.

Thankfully, the ISO standards defining the PDF specification can be downloaded free of charge.Visit thePDF Association's website to get your version.

• (v0.1.0) Low-level extraction utilities for primitive PDF types
• (v0.2.0) Parser for cross-reference dictionary
• (v0.3.0) Eager, owned instance of theBuilder trait
• (v0.4.0) Parser for the general PDF structure, allowing to iterate over pages and their content
