--- Comment #3 from V Stuart Foote <vsfoote at libreoffice.org> ---
Nope. That in effect is asking for LibreOffice to become a utility for parsing
content of PDF.  We are not a PDF editor, nor do we provide utilities to
manipulate PDF.

We deal in ODF and in external formats via appropriate filters--import and
export.

There is no ODF or project requirement to convert PDF to external text formats.
There is a requirement as for bug 32249 to fully filter parse PDF structure
into useable text runs/sentences/paragraphs.

If you have a requirement--construct it within that context and it would be
valid.

Anything else is OUT OF SCOPE.
