If you seriously want to know, you will have to study the PDF specification,
currently ISO 32000-1; a copy of it is available for free from the Adobe web
site. There you'll find the PDFNames (and even more important: the concepts
behind them) explained.

If you do not want to study the specification, you had better restrict
yourself to the high level iText API which is appropriately documented in
the second edition of iText in Action.
