dash pattern array and A description of the dash pattern to be used when paths are strokes

number (see “Line Dash Pattern” on page 155). Initial value: a solid line.

rendering intent name The rendering intent to be used when converting CIE-based colors to
device colors (see “Rendering Intents” on page 197). Default value:
RelativeColorimetric.

stroke adjustment boolean (PDF 1.2) A flag specifying whether to compensate for possible
rasterization effects when stroking a path with a line width that is
small relative to the pixel resolution of the output device (see
Section 6.5.4, “Automatic Stroke Adjustment”). Note that this is
considered a device-independent parameter, even though the
details of its effects are device-dependant. Initial value: false.

blend mode name or array (PDF 1.4) The current blend mode to used in the transparent imaging
model (see Sections 7.2.4, “Blend mode,” and 7.5.2, “Specifying
Blending Color Space and Blend Mode”). This parameter is implicitly
reset to its initial value at the beginning of execution of a
transparency group XObject”). Initial value: Normal.

soft mask dictionary or (PDF 1.4) A soft-mask dictionary (see “Soft-Mask Dictionaries” on
name page 445) specifying the mask or mask opacity values to be used in
the transparent imaging model (see “Source Shape and Opacity” on
page 421 and “Mask shape and Opacity” on page 443), or the name
None if no such mask is specified. This parameter is implicitly reset
to its initial value at the beginning of execution of a transparency
group XObject (see Section 7.5.5 “Transparency Group XObjects”).
Initial value: None.

alpha constant number (PDF 1.4) The constant shape or constant opacity value to be used in
the transparent imaging model (see “Source Shape and Opacity” on
page 421 and “Constant shape and Opacity” on page 444). These are
two separate alpha constant parameter: one for stroking and one
for all other painting operations. This parameter is implicitly reset to
its initial value at the beginning of the execution of a transparency
group XObject (see Section 7.5.5 “Transparency Group XObjects”).
Initial value: 1.0.

alpha source boolean (PDF 1.4) A flag specifying whether the current soft mask and alpha
constant parameters are to be interpreted as shape value (true) or
opacity value (false). This flag also governs the interpretation of
SMask entry, if any, in an image dictionary (see Section 4.8.4,
“Image Dictionaries”). Initial value: false.
