graphics/hierarchical_layers

 * Hierarchical layers:

 * Define a layer hierarchy using the parent and child options.

 *

 * Define the layer "Languages" with the layers "English" and "German" and use

 * set_layer_dependency() with the "parent" option to specify a hierarchy

 * between them. Define the layer "Images" with the layers "RGB" and "Grayscale"

 * and use set_layer_dependency() with the "parent" option to specify a

 * hierarchy between them. Output images and text on the various layers and

 * open the document with the RGB images and English captions visible.

 *

 * Required software: PDFlib/PDFlib+PDI/PPS 7

 * Required data: grayscale and RGB images
