pdftk, being a CLI app, as yourself have said, has not a menu entry

I know this is a relatively old post, but... beware...rcrsn51 wrote:Pdftohtml is included in Puppy 4.3.1. You run it from the command line.Code: Select all
pdftohtml xxx.pdf
It's not in wary 0.7, for example, and it might not be included in other Puppies...
Second, you'll get best results with pdftohtml typing
Code: Select all
pdftohtml -c xyz.pdf
For a continuous text, type
Code: Select all
pdftohtml -noframes xyz.pdf
Further help on pdftohtml is available here:

Theoretically, pdftohtml saves you the expense of a big pdf editor: you convert your pdf file with it, you modify it with amaya or kompozer or another html editor (even in OpenOffice's web writer, although that's being spartan and I don't recommend it!). Then you re-export or "re-print" your edited copy back to pdf format.
For those interested in processing pdf files directly in pdf, puppy has PDFEdit here:
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... -Lucid.pet
An alternative pdf processor, pdf-shuffler, is also dicussed here:

We also have a brief intro to pdf and links here :

Now you can edit pdf's in Puppy to your heart's content! Have fun!
