You are making life difficult if to don't have
a tool for reading PDF

You can buy a used PC for tens of dollars.
Apparently it's OK to spend $200 on a nice set of wrenches, but not
OK to scrounge a contemporary PC to read contemporary documentation

In this case there were two questions: How much does it cost to have the
minimum tools to handle the data and are you forced into closed source

Personally I use a P4 & Acrobat Pro.
