In this case, an indirect reference to the object with number 2049. This object contains a dictionary.   Whereas, a DescendantFont dictionary is represented by an icon similar to that used for a numbered list in Word and the reference is in brackets...     The numbered list means that you're looking at a direct object (as opposed to an indirect reference). More specifically: you're looking at an array. The reason I ask is that I am trying to recover the DescendantFont dictionary and at the moment it is always returned as null. As Leonard already told you: you're trying to get an array as a dictionary with getAsDict(). This returns null because there is no dictionary. You should use getAsArray().
