     1.4 +The command line tools are all gathered into one umbrella command: `mutool`.
     1.5 +
     1.6 +For rendering and converting documents there are three commands available:
     1.7 +
     1.8 +  * `mutool draw`: This is the more customizable tool, but also has a more
     1.9 +    difficult set of command line options. It is primarily used for rendering
    1.10 +    a document to image files.
    1.11 +  * `mutool convert`: This tool is used for converting documents into other
    1.12 +    formats, and is easier to use.
    1.13 +  * `mutool trace`: This is a debugging tool used for printing a trace of the
    1.14 +    graphics device calls on a page.
    1.15 +
    1.16 +There are also several tools specifically for working with PDF files:
    1.17 +
    1.18 +  * `mutool show`: A tool for displaying the internal objects in a PDF file.
    1.19 +  * `mutool extract`: Extract images and embedded font resources.
    1.20 +  * `mutool clean`: Rewrite PDF file. Used to fix broken files, or to make
    1.21 +    a PDF file human editable.
    1.22 +  * `mutool merge`: Merge pages from multiple input files into a new PDF.
    1.23 +  * `mutool create`: Create a new PDF file from a text file with graphics
    1.24 +    commands.
    1.25 +  * `mutool portfolio`: Manipulate PDF portfolios.
    1.26 +
    1.27 +And finally, there is a tool for doing anything you can imagine:
    1.28 +
    1.29 +  * `mutool run`: A tool for running Javascript programs with access to the
    1.30 +    MuPDF library functions.
