195 | """Shows three things an extended graphics state opens: half-opacity fills that
overlap and mix, one colour laid over another in four blend modes, and overlapping
letters of one text object knocked out or composited.
The Python twin of the `write_transparency` example in Rust. The opacity panel
draws three rectangles, each at half opacity, so the colours show through one
another where they overlap. The blend panel lays the same orange square over a
blue bar four times, once in each of four modes, so the mode each square is
painted in can be read from the colour it leaves. The knockout panel sets the same
line twice at half opacity, each letter crossed by a stroke that overlaps it: under
`TK true` the text object is painted as one and the overlaps come out as light as the
rest, under `TK false` each glyph is composited on its own and the overlaps come out
darker. A reader that ignores the flag shows the two lines alike.
The three headings are held in `Words`, once per language, and `HQF_PDF_LANG` picks
which set is drawn. Each square is labelled with the name the file writes for its blend
mode, and each line with the entry its state writes, which are the same in every
language.
