The cross-reference table contains information that permits random access to indirect objects within the file so that the entire file need not be read to locate any particular object. The structure is useful for incremental updates, since it allows a new cross-reference section to be added to the PDF file, containing entries only for objects that have been added or deleted. Cross-reference is represented by cross-reference table. The cross-reference table is the traditional way of representing reference type.
