title: How to convert PDF binary parts into ASCII/ANSI so I can look at it in a text editor?
body: <p>Most PDFs contain lots of binary looking parts in between some ASCII. But I remember also having seen PDFs where such binary parts by and large were absent, and one could open them in a text editor to study their structure.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a trick, tool, or command that will convert binary PDF parts to ASCII/ANSI? (Preferably "free as in beer" or even "free as in liberty")</p>
