/*
* PDFlib Virtual File system (PVF):
* Create a PVF file which holds an image or PDF, and import the data from the
* PVF file
*
* This avoids disk access and is especially useful when the same image or PDF
* is imported multiply. For examples, images which sit in a database don't
* have to be written and re-read from disk, but can be passed to PDFlib
* directly in memory. A similar technique can be used for loading other data
* such as fonts, ICC profiles, etc.
*
* Required software: PDFlib/PDFlib+PDI/PPS 9
