Two similar, yet different, models are introduced and investigated in this paper. In practice, although working on the compressed versions in processing time proportional to the compressed. A pdf file may define new encodings by taking a base encoding say, winansiencoding and redefining a few bytes, so a pdf author may, for example, define a new encoding named mysuperbencoding as winansiencoding but with byte value 65 changed to mean character ntilde this definition goes inside the pdf file, and then specifying that some.
