mupdf is a lightweight PDF, CBZ, and XPS viewer and toolkit.
-The renderer in MuPDF is tailored for high quality anti-aliased graphics.

-MuPDF is also small, fast, and yet complete. It supports PDF 1.7 with

-also reads XPS and OpenXPS documents. MuPDF is written modularly, so
-features can be added on by integrators if they so desire.
