** PDF
|
||||
PDFs are a great format for (somewhat) immutable text and reports with
|
||||
great formatting options. Though Emacs isn't really the premier
|
||||
solution for viewing PDFs (I highly recommend [[https://pwmt.org/projects/zathura/][Zathura]]), similar to
|
||||
most things with Emacs, having a PDF viewer builtin can be a very
|
||||
useful asset.
|
||||
|
||||
For example if I were editing an org document which I was eventually
|
||||
compiling into a PDF, my workflow would be much smoother with a PDF
|
||||
viewer within Emacs that I can open on another pane.
|
||||
|
||||
Furthermore many governmental studies and essays use the PDF
|
||||
format. If I were to be analysing them in a study or project (for
|
||||
example, programming a tool using data from them), which I will most
|
||||
definitely be using Emacs for, having a PDF pane open for occasional
|
||||
viewing can be very useful.
|
||||
|
||||
*** PDF Tools
|
||||
=pdf-tools= provides the necessary functionality for viewing
|
||||
PDFs. There is no PDF viewing without this package. =evil-collection=
|
||||
provides a setup for this mode, so use that.
