hello!

I want to parse a pdf file in a pdf viewer with a cmd commant or any other none GUI way

it would be best to use MuPDF, but any other pdf viewer would suffice

any help?

How dangerous could it be to simply try that?

I tried it with no luck
I cannot also locate a win32 manual, neither a xpdf.exe file
I only got xpdf tools for win32

any hint?

or any other solution? maybe a stand-alone library implementation?

Did you look through the xpdf package at all?  There is no xpdf.exe file.  In the bin32/bin64 folders of the xpdf package, you'll find the following executables:

pdftotext.exe
pdftops.exe
pdftoppm.exe
pdfinfo.exe
pdfimages.exe
pdffonts.exe
pdfdetach.exe

I coloured the one you need to use.

Since you said you wanted to use MuPDF:

[copy or print]
"c:\path\to\mupdf.exe" "c:\my\path\somefile.pdf"

Obviously, change the paths to match your computer.
