The usage comment in doc-view.el says
,----
| ;; To use it simply open a document file with
| ;;
| ;; C-x C-f ~/path/to/document RET
| ;;
| ;; and the document will be converted and displayed, if your emacs supports png
| ;; images. With `C-c C-c' you can toggle between the rendered images
| ;; representation and the source text representation of the document. With
| ;; `C-c C-e' you can switch to an appropriate editing mode for the document.
`----
And the function docstrings say
,----
| (defun doc-view-toggle-display ()
| "Start or stop displaying a document file as a set of images.
| This command toggles between showing the text of the document
| file and showing the document as a set of images."
`----
and
,----
| (defun doc-view-edit-doc ()
| "Leave `doc-view-mode' and open the current doc with an appropriate editing mode."
`----
If you decide to install the patch this feature should be added to the
texinfo docs, too. Here's the entry for image-mode, the entry for
doc-view-mode would be quite similar, because I took image-mode as
pattern.
,----[ (info "(emacs)File Conveniences") ]
| Visiting image files automatically selects Image mode. This major
| mode allows you to toggle between displaying the file as an image in
| the Emacs buffer, and displaying its underlying text representation,
| using the command `C-c C-c' (`image-toggle-display'). This works only
| when Emacs can display the specific image type. If the displayed
| image is wider or taller than the frame, the usual point motion keys
| (`C-f', `C-p', and so forth) cause different parts of the image to be
| displayed.

Bye,
