Hello.

Is there a text-based PDF (view/read)er for command line in Linux 
(Debian stable [Jessie])'s terminals like text based web browsers (Lynx, 
w3m, eLinks, etc.)? I also don't mean a PDF converter too. I tried 
"less" command that people suggested online, but it shows unreadable 
garbages and XML codes. :(

Thank you in advance. :)
