The majority of scientific and technical papers are delivered by the PDF file for portable presentation. However, it difficult to read the PDF paper on small screen devices, such as tablets and eBook readers.

So I wrote PDFlower to reflow PDF papers for small-screen reading.

Compared with plain-text extraction based tools, PDFlower reconstructs the object level - columns, formulas, tables and figures - layout using some smart heuristics, and then renders them for new page size.
