<title>Poppler</title>
<p>
Poppler is a specialized library to render PDF documents. This can be used
for various purposes. For example, Evince is GNOME's PDF viewer, and it
uses Poppler for all its rendering. In addition, the software that creates
thumbnail icons for PDF files also uses Poppler. You could even use it to
create software that lets the user re-arrange or extract pages from PDFs.
