For command line users, there is pdftotext available.

A suitable entry in mailcap would enable its use.

## Plain text
text/plain; gedit %s; test=RunningX;
text/plain; nano %s;
#
## Images
image/bmp; fbi %s;
image/gif; fbi %s;
image/jpeg; fbi %s;
image/png; fbi %s;
image/tiff; fbi %s;
image/webp; fbi %s;
#
## Formatted Documents
application/msword; antiword -f %s; copiousoutput;
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document;
docx2txt.sh %s; copiousoutput;
application/rtf; unrtf --text %s; copiousoutput;
application/pdf; pdftotext --text %s; copiousoutput;
