tdf is a terminal-based PDF viewer written in Rust using ratatui, designed for performance and responsiveness even with very large PDFs. It supports asynchronous rendering, searching, hot reloading, and optional EPUB/CBZ support via feature flags.
Use cases
- read pdfs in the terminal
- view large pdf files without a gui
- search text inside pdfs from the command line
- watch a pdf that changes on disk
- open epub or cbz files in a tui
When to avoid
- you need a graphical viewer with zoom, annotations, or form filling
- you want a polished end-user application rather than a hobbyist tool
- you cannot install build dependencies like libfontconfig and clang
