PDFRasterfarian takes a
lot of processing power - it would be way too slow to run on the Reader's low-power, slow, CPU. Also - and please correct me if I'm wrong - but doesn't it need a certain amount of "manual" tweaking to give good results with a given PDF file? Could it be used as an automated tool which would work well on all PDF files?
