Description-en: GTK+ text editor for ebook PDF files
gpdftext opens a simple text-based PDF file, typically
intended for reading on an ebook reader and loads the
text into a text editor window, autoformatting the text
for long lines and paragraph breaks.
.
gpdftext is useful when the downloaded PDF uses a small
font or wastes a lot of space in the margins so that
a plain text file would display in a more comfortable
font.
.
gpdftext supports spell checking and editor font selection
and can save ASCII content as PDF.
