You're right, my point is that "Master of Science" is English enough: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_of_Science > If you woold specify what tasks in general and what features > in particular you look for to carry out those tasks, there is > no "academic workflow".

Here my bad, I should have asked a narrower question. Looking back, I'd say you're right, my first question was if it was possible (in the community's opinion) to study old, scanned, poorly indexed PDFs with pdf-tools, and if not, what other tools do you use. I should have been more focused, I apologize. Alessandro
