Are these changed in the PDF itself that is in the PDB container?

Sounds easy enough to deal with.

calibre would open it with the internal viewer unless you set it to use the reader set as the system default.

Opening a ticket and attaching a few files would be great. If the size prevents them from being attached or if they are under copyright you can email them to me directly at john at nachtimwald.com. I would like a few so I can test the python solution I'll add to calibre before releasing it. I want to play with things like setting the metadata as PDF's and PDB's support different info.
