There needs to be better tooling for inspecting PDF documents. Right now, my needs are met by using `qpdf` to export QDF [1], but it is just begging for a GUI to wrap around it... [1] https://qpdf.readthedocs.io/en/stable/qdf.html https://qpdf.readthedocs.io/en/stable/qdf.html

In what contest do you use that tool? Looks like that page is primarily about editing pdfs using that format rather than inspecting. Very tempting to fool around with the ideas especially after the Epstein pdf debacle.

Take a look at the REMNux reverse engineering page for PDF documents (https://docs.remnux.org/discover-the-tools/analyze+documents/pdf https://docs.remnux.org/discover-the-tools/analyze+documents...). Lots of tools here for looking at malicious PDFs that can be used to inspect/understand even non-malicious documents.
