I would suggest changing the title to the actual title of the article: Adaptive PDFs.

Assuming the program works, the PDF will not actually look different to me than to anyone else looking at it, so there is nothing that "changes based on who is reading". It is just that text extraction, a wholly different (and much fuzzier) process than viewing the PDF, and something that the same person can do, will now return structured (Markdown) text. (One might say the PDF changes based on how you are reading it.) A great idea, IMHO.
