Save the file, then 'chmod o+x thefile"

  chmod --> change mode (permission) bits
  o+x --> for "o"wner, set the e"x"ecute bit 
  thefile --> just a placeholder for the filename you saved it as

Because the okular (the last part of that pipeline) was still running.

you'll need to read the qpdfview manual to determine what switch (if
any) it needs to be told "read from stdin".  

It may also be the case that you cannot pipe input into qpdfview (I know
evince has this shortcoming).

Artifact of opening it from a pipeline.  

If you want to save the output as a file, this is a little more
straightforward:

  gunzip -c $(man -w WHATEVER) | groff -ktman -Tpdf > WHATEVER.pdf


Instead of sending the groff conversion output of the "WHATEVER" manpage
into okular, the above command stuffs it into the file "WHATEVER.pdf"
(then you can open it with whatever viewer you want).
