That caught my eye because I didn't know there was such a thing.
What's the app name?

Local government here (New Mexico, not SF) tends to use PDF for
everything, which makes it challenging to keep track of upcoming
public meetings. I'm currently using pdftohtml from poppler-utils,
but I'm forever looking for better ways to deal with PDF, so
I'm curious what you use.
