    HIG_PDE_PLACE
    In This Topic

    Handle to the PDE place object. A place is an element that marks a place on a page in a PDF file. In a PDF file, a place is represented by the MP or DP Marked Content operators.

    Marked content is useful for adding structure information to a PDF file. For instance, a drawing program may want to mark a point with information, such as the start of a path of a certain type. Marked content provides a way to retain this information in the PDF file. A DP operator functions the same as the MP operator and, in addition, allows a property list dictionary to be associated with a place.
