In some cases, text locking This wasn't really what I'm looking for, since the pdf's in question have images. I really would want to see them in console mode (more even since my X cannot be used for the moment due to some upgrade problems I haven't sorted out).
Fbi is capable of doing this, I'm sure (it's a framebuffer image viewer, it converts the pdf to an image format normally). The converting however has issues on my Woody box. > Other option is to dump to printer. Not sure if this is directly > possible through acroread or xpdf, though a pdftops filter should allow > this. It's not really necessary for me to see the pdf, as I can always do it on my Windows box, but I would call it a shame if I don't get this to work in Linux. Thanks for the hints! -- The only thing cheaper than hardware is talk.
