Properties
DecodedLength
(Optional; PDF 1.5) A non-negative Int32 representing the number of bytes in the decoded (defiltered) PdfStream. It can be used to determine, for example, whether enough disk space is available to write a PdfStream to a file.
This value shall be considered a hint only; for some stream filters, it may not be possible to determine this value precisely.
Property Value
Exceptions
Value is less than zero.
Value is not according to PDF Specification ISO 32000-1:2008.

Length
(Required) The number of bytes from the beginning of the line following the keyword stream to the last byte just before the keyword endstream. (There may be an additional EOL marker, preceding endstream, that is not included in the count and is not logically part of the stream data.) See 7.3.8.2, "Stream Extent", for further discussion.

Methods
Clone(Boolean)
Makes a deep clone of the PdfStream with optionally cloning descendant PdfIndirectObjects.
public PdfStream Clone(bool shallowIndirect)Public Function Clone(shallowIndirect As Boolean) As PdfStreamParameters
shallowIndirect- Boolean
if set to true descendant PdfIndirectObjects won't be cloned.
Returns
Clone(Func<PdfIndirectObject, PdfBasicObject>)
Makes a deep clone of the PdfStream with parameter that controls the cloning of PdfIndirectObjects.
public PdfStream Clone(Func<PdfIndirectObject, PdfBasicObject> indirectObjectClone)Public Function Clone(indirectObjectClone As Func(Of PdfIndirectObject, PdfBasicObject)) As PdfStreamParameters
indirectObjectClone- Func<PdfIndirectObject, PdfBasicObject>
A parameter that controls the cloning of PdfIndirectObjects.
Returns
Create()
Creates a new instance of the PdfStream class.
Returns
Open(PdfStreamDataMode, PdfStreamDataState)
Opens this PdfStream so its data can be accessed.
public Stream Open(PdfStreamDataMode mode, PdfStreamDataState state)Public Function Open(mode As PdfStreamDataMode, state As PdfStreamDataState) As StreamParameters
The mode in which PdfStream data should be opened.
state- PdfStreamDataState
The state in which PdfStream data should be opened.
Returns
Remarks
Returned Stream must be disposed after it is no longer needed, otherwise, subsequent opening of PdfStream will fail.
Exceptions
PdfStream is already opened. Make sure that Stream instance returned from Open(PdfStreamDataMode, PdfStreamDataState) method is disposed before calling Open(PdfStreamDataMode, PdfStreamDataState) method again.
PdfStream specifies external data (through F entry) that is currently not supported.

Remarks
This method should be used primarily for debugging purposes and should be considered volatile (format of its return value might change in future versions).
