Enclosing class:
PdfDocument

static class PdfDocument.PdfCatalog extends PdfDictionary
PdfCatalog is the PDF Catalog-object.

The Catalog is a dictionary that is the root node of the document. It contains a reference to the tree of pages contained in the document, a reference to the tree of objects representing the document's outline, a reference to the document's article threads, and the list of named destinations. In addition, the Catalog indicates whether the document's outline or thumbnail page images should be displayed automatically when the document is viewed and wether some location other than the first page should be shown when the document is opened.
In this class however, only the reference to the tree of pages is implemented.
This object is described in the 'Portable Document Format Reference Manual version 1.3' section 6.2 (page 67-71)
