this is why i do like to try and parse shit myself for my own tools, not that thats without risk but i dont share my.code so its untargeted. however, to support a wide variety like this the tools are ok. most code honestly in a pdf will not target pdftotext , i think. i think it would target the thing people open pdfs with like browsers and maybe a few readers like adobe and foxit reader. pdftotext seems more like an 'academic target', like a nice exersize but not very fruitful in an actual attack. i might be wrong tho.
