NAME

kpdf - a KDE pdf viewer based on xpdf

SYNOPSIS

kpdf [Qt-options] [KDE-options] [URL]

DESCRIPTION

kpdf is a KDE PDF viewer based on xpdf code. Although being based on xpdf code, kpdf has some unique features like continuous mode and presentation support.

The PDF format is widely used for publishing documents that are mostly not meant to be edited again. kpdf is only a viewer for these files and therefore it doesn't provide any functionality to edit or create PDF documents.
