Streams have a (mandatory) Length key in their stream dictionary
Yes, this seems like a way out. Alas, it doesn't actually help you
when you're scanning the file sequentially, because the stream
dictionary can have an indirect reference to its length, with the
length following after the actual stream data. This is actually quite
common, because it allows the stream to be written on-the-fly.
Of course. I'd forgotten about the possibility of indirect references
(it's been a while since I last looked in any detail at PDF).
Kind regards,
Alastair.
