* a subset of the QPDF library's capabilities to make them accessible
* to callers who can't handle calling C++ functions or working with
* C++ classes. This may be especially useful to Windows users who
- * are accessing the qpdflib DLL directly or to other people

+ * are accessing the qpdf DLL directly or to other people programming
+ * in non-C/C++ languages that can call C code but not C++ code.
+ *
+ * There are several things to keep in mind when using the C API.
+ *
+ * The C API is not as rich as the C++ API. For any operations
+ * that involve actually manipulating PDF objects, you must use
+ * the C++ API. The C API is primarily useful for doing basic
+ * transformations on PDF files similar to what you might do with
+ * the qpdf command-line tool.
+ *
+ * These functions store their state in a qpdf_data object.
+ * Individual instances of qpdf_data are not thread-safe: although
+ * you may access different qpdf_data objects from different
+ * threads, you may not access one qpdf_data simultaneously from
+ * multiple threads.
+ *
+ * All dynamic memory, except for that of the qpdf_data object
+ * itself, is managed by the library. You must create a qpdf_data
+ * object using qpdf_init and free it using qpdf_cleanup.
+ *
+ * Many functions return char*. In all cases, the char* values
+ * returned are pointers to data inside the qpdf_data object. As
+ * such, they are always freed by qpdf_cleanup. In most cases,
+ * strings returned by functions here may be invalidated by
+ * subsequent function calls, sometimes even to different
+ * functions. If you want a string to last past the next qpdf
+ * call or after a call to qpdf_cleanup, you should make a copy of
+ * it.
+ *
+ * Many functions defined here merely set parameters and therefore
+ * never return error conditions. Functions that may cause PDF
+ * files to be read or written may return error conditions. Such
+ * functions return an error code. If there were no errors or
+ * warnings, they return QPDF_SUCCESS. If there were warnings,
+ * the return value has the QPDF_WARNINGS bit set. If there
+ * errors, the QPDF_ERRORS bit is set. In other words, if there
+ * are both warnings and errors, then the return status will be
+ * QPDF_WARNINGS | QPDF_ERRORS. You may also call the
+ * qpdf_more_warnings and qpdf_more_errors functions to test
+ * whether there are unseen warning or error conditions. By
+ * default, warnings are written to stderr when detected, but this
+ * behavior can be suppressed. In all cases, errors and warnings
+ * may be retrieved by calling qpdf_next_warning and
+ * qpdf_next_error. All exceptions thrown by the C++ interface
+ * are caught and converted into error messages by the C
+ * interface.
+ *
+ * Most functions defined here have obvious counterparts that are
+ * methods to either QPDF or QPDFWriter. Please see comments in
+ * QPDF.hh and QPDFWriter.hh for details on their use. In order
+ * to avoid duplication of information, comments here focus
+ * primarily on differences between the C and C++ API.
