All integers in BDF are big-endian two's complement, floating point numbers are IEEE 754, and strings are UTF-8. All integers in BDF are big-endian two's complement, floating point numbers are IEEE 754, and strings are UTF-8. Integers (including the lengths of strings and raws) must be represented using the minimum number of bytes.
