Convert PDF to TEXINFO

The Portable Document Format (PDF) is a file extension created by Adobe Systems in 1993 to facilitate document exchange across different systems. PDFs preserve the formatting of source documents, making them ideal for sharing text, images, and graphics in a consistent manner. Commonly used for forms, manuals, e-books, and reports, PDF files are platform-independent, ensuring the content appears the same on various devices and operating systems. This versatility has solidified its status as a standard in digital documentation, enhancing both compatibility and security in file sharing.

The Texinfo is a documentation format developed by the GNU Project, created by Richard Stallman and Bob Chassell. It uses plain text files with @-commands to generate both online and printed documentation from a single source. Texinfo files, with the TEXI extension, support various output formats like HTML, PDF, and Info. This system simplifies maintaining consistent documentation across multiple formats.
