I've thought about writing a book on that.I've had to implement bits and pieces of PDF,PNG,JPG,and TTF and learning this stuff has been fascinating.
I did write one article and also did a short video on this stuff, but could think about expanding that if there is sufficient interest.

My work so far has been in Ruby but I'd probably want to at least look into how to do this sort of stuff in C or some other low level language, because things like alpha channel splitting in PNG is painfully slow :-/
