Adobe's forums are provided for discussing Adobe's products, specifically the Acrobat SDK in this case -- not a place to get help developing rivals to them.
That said, Adobe do offer one forum where this would be on topic: http://forums.adobe.com/community/design_development/pdf_language_and_ specifications
However, I would add that the rules for white space are explicit in 32000-1 and you must follow them EXACTLY. An encoded stream has a good chance that the first encoded byte will look like white space so don't follow your instincts, follow the spec. And you need to understand that a PDF file - and every other file - is a stream of "numbers" i.e. 8 bit bytes, already, no conversion is needed and you must make sure no change takes place. Please do not reply here, if you have more to add, please take your questions to the appropriate forum.
