1.7 Vendor-Extensible Fields

Records in the .NET Binary Format: XML Data Structure that contain DictionaryString structures use integers to represent strings. The producer and consumer of a document encoded in this format have to agree on how to map these integers to strings. This specification does not prescribe how the producer and consumer agree upon or learn about this mapping. Furthermore, the format does not provide a way to encode such information. Any specification that defines this mapping is considered a different format.
