   Yes, there is a difference in mentality between a gaggle of users   
   accustomed to isolated, monolithic applications versus one based on a   
   cooperating ecosystem of interlocking toolkits.   
      
   Here’s another PDF toolkit: Poppler. This is a more extensive one, that   
   covers both the creation and rendering of PDF files. For example, Inkscape   
   relies on Poppler when you ask it to import pages from a PDF file into   
   your illustration.
