 * A string object, which may be a text string, a PDFDocEncoded string, ASCII string, or byte string.

 * <p>Text strings are used for character strings that contain information intended to be
 * human-readable, such as text annotations, bookmark names, article names, document information,
 * and so forth.
 *
 * <p>PDFDocEncoded strings are used for characters that are represented in a single byte.
 *
 * <p>ASCII strings are used for characters that are represented in a single byte using ASCII
 * encoding.
 *
 * <p>Byte strings are used for binary data represented as a series of bytes, but the encoding is
 * not known. The bytes of the string need not represent characters.
