It depends on what you mean by "read." Try opening a PDF as text and
see what you get.
What operating system are you using? I use either KPDF or Xpdf to
read pdf documents on Linux. Both are very nice. I open them from
dired using "M-!"
There are other pdf readers available for Linux --- and many for
Windows and Mac OS X.
