Thanks Herbert,

after long searching (and by the way, how do you dig in all the
available packages? I tried 'pkgin search pdftotext' but I couldn't
find it) it looks like this application is both in:

 - converters/doc2html
 - print/poppler-utils

As the former is much smaller package than the latter, are they the same tools?

Thanks
