    - #### getDefaultFilterName

          protected java.lang.String getDefaultFilterName()

      Returns the name of a suitable filter for this PDF object.
      Returns:
        the default filter

      Returns a value that hints at the size of the encoded stream. This is used to optimize buffer allocation so fewer buffer reallocations are necessary.
      Returns:
        an estimated size (0 if no hint can be given)
      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException` - in case of an I/O problem

                                               throws java.io.IOException

      Sends the raw stream data to the target OutputStream.
      Parameters:
        `out` - OutputStream to write to
      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException` - In case of an I/O problem
