Quite simply because there IS no "textual information" in a PDF document. A PDF document doesn't contain paragraphs, sentences, and words. All that it contains is drawing instructions of the form "draw this shape at these coordinates".

A PDF document is essentially a series of instructions for drawing a picture on a sheet of paper. It's not a book.
