PC items in OBJ format are actually defined by a blank SD name and a type of PC. However, PC items could have a nonblank name. Note also that an OBJ SD item with a blank name is invalid.

Table 1. OBJ treatment of ESD PC items and blank names
Name PC SD
blank valid invalid
nonblank undefined valid

The table shows that PC items are uniquely identified by a blank name, so that there is actually no need for a separate PC ESD type.

The same convention as for nonblank names applies for GOFF format; no special treatment is required for blank section names, except that no LD record (SD item (3)) is ever needed.

Thus, follow the same two steps as for SD items (1) and (2), using a Section Name of a single blank.
