[gdal-dev] PDF and EXTRA_STREAM

[Brent Fraser]

I've been experimenting with generating Geospatial PDFs with GDAL and 
would like to wrtie some extra text and lines to the PDF file. The PDF 
drive has a Create Option of EXTRA_STREAM which looks pretty good.  I 
can add text, lines and rectangles by doing:

   -co EXTRA_STREAM="BT 0 0 255 rg /FTimesRoman 50 Tf 1 0 0 1 1 1 Tm 100 
200 Td (Hello World!) Tj ET 80 260 m 80 50 l h S 0.9 0.5 0.0 rg 400 50 
300 200 re f"

But I think the length of the stream could get very long.  Any interest 
in adding another Create Option like

EXTRA_STREAM_FILE=my_stuff.txt

so I could put all the extra in a separate file?
