Just been tidying up my internal reference pages: added a PDF viewer and
editor page which currently just mentions qpdfview and xpdf.

Anyway, about XPDF: I always thought it was simply the viewer, but on
visiting its project page for the first time, I discovered a whole raft
of useful command-line programs are associated with it. They do stuff
like converting a PDF doc to another format and extracting images and
text from them. Not stuff you'd do every day, but handy to know about
when you need them.
