\noindent By these mechanisms, ad-hoc exploration of PDF files is possible.
We may also edit dictionary entries with \texttt{-replace-obj} by giving an object specification, and the new value in JSON format:
\begin{framed}
\small\noindent\verb!cpdf -replace-obj /Root/MarkInfo/Marked=true in.pdf -o out.pdf!
\vspace{2.5mm}
\noindent Replace or add dictionary entry in \texttt{in.pdf}, writing to \texttt{out.pdf}.
\end{framed}
\noindent Any part of the object specification not already present will be fabricated using direct nested dictionaries. For example, if \texttt{/MarkInfo} does not exist in the root dictionary, this command adds \texttt{/MarkInfo <</Marked true>>} to the root dictionary.
