I don't suppose anyone has any Haskell code that understands the PDF format, do they?

I know of one, though I'm not sure how complete it is:

http://www.alpheccar.org/en/soft/hpdf

I know it can create PDF files. I'm not sure if it can read them.

Another lib that can write PDFs is the vector graphics library Cairo, which is currently bundled with Gtk2Hs. It uses the same api (which closely follows the PDF drawing model) to produce PNG, screen, PS and PDF output. If someone helps us update the binding then it'll also produce SVG output. Duncan
