The best PDF experiance I know about currently is if you run Orca master
with the latest snapshot of chromium or Chrome. The builtin PDF reader of
Chromium is very nice, it places every page under a different landmark so
you can navigate between them with m and shift+m. It even support a few PDF
tags by converting them to their HTML equivalents, headings for example.

Rynhardt
