Why PDFDancer Exists
Developers everywhere struggle with PDFs. The format wasn't built to be edited, and existing tools fall short. Here's what people are saying:
"I fucking hate PDF with a burning passion"
·X
"Things as bad as PDFs shouldn't still exist in 2025"
·X
"It's almost like pdf was designed to beat technology"
·X
"Parsing PDFs has slowly driven me insane over the last year"
·X
"PDF font maps can lie, so what you copy is not what you see"
·X
"You go thinking you're grabbing text, and end up with a puzzle instead"
·X
"Existing tools don't embed fonts correctly unless they're widely supported"
"PDFs care more about drawing than preserving meaning - nothing semantic is stored"
·X
"PDF generators drop details. It's a compressed printed page, not editable content"
"I worked on parsing pdfs for 1.5 weekends and concluded - pdf parsing is thankless"
·X
"I've seen pages where the text was all drawn paths and the characters weren't included"
"Modifying PDFs is always tricky - that was not initially foreseen when the format was developed"
