pdfSetDecodeMode

int32_t __stdcall pdfSetDecodeMode(PPDF IPDF, int32_t NewDecodeMode);

function pdfSetDecodeMode(const IPDF: PPDF; NewDecodeMode: Integer): Integer; stdcall;

Purpose. Control whether pdfGetObjectToString (Document Lifecycle, Locking, and Object Introspection) returns a stream object's filter-decoded payload or its raw serialized bytes.

Description. Real and directly wired: per an explicit source comment, "Consumed by GetObjectAsString: mode <> 0 -> pdfGetObjectToString returns the filter-decoded stream payload for stream objects (raw serialization at mode 0)." This is a genuinely useful low-level debugging/introspection toggle, not a no-op like several of this chapter's other document-global settings.

Parameters.

Return value. 1 if IPDF is valid; 0 otherwise.
