The result was   delete. I agree with the consensus: By our usual criterion for programs, this is not yet notable. It may be useful, and become notable, but WP is not a directory.  DGG ( talk ) 20:35, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

I do not believe that this article is on a notable subject. Further, it completely lacks citations and is written in a semi-promotional format.

This is the reason I created what I needed. The No. 16990 helper application to handle pdf files might not have the full bibliographical relevance to be included; might be, somewhere into the general PDF under the header neglected functions in current pdf handling programs (and some patches to solve them).
