 TeXUtil 7.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1992-2000

        analyzing file : pdfref.pdf
             file size : 4310705
               objects : 9929
           annotations : 2906
                 links : 2906 (0 named / 0 scripts / 0 files)
               widgets : 0

so there's over 300 K basic annotation data (3000*100 chars average) plus
some big dest arrays and hinting tables.
