I read in the PDF reference that PDF strings within content streams have a
maximum length of 32767 bytes, but there is no restriction for PDF strings
outside content streams. Is there any good reason to define as an integer
the length of the data within the pdf_string_s struct? What if a PDF string
which is not within a content stream is longer than the maximum integer
value?
You may use the `pdf_pos_t' type defined in `pdf_base.h'. It is
assured to be a scalable signed integer type.
