So you want to modify the text of a PDF by hand
Great post. I've spend a lot of time reading through the PDF specification over the last ~5 years while building DocSpring [1], and I still feel like I've barely scratched the surface. qpdf is a great tool. One of my other favorites is RUPS [2], which really lets you dig into the structure of a PDF.

You mean this, right? https://github.com/itext/i7j-rups#readme

Any decent free online tool which can give me a breakdown of pdf contents including relative sizes of assets such as images, fonts, etc?
It's not an online tool, but it's free nonetheless: https://github.com/itext/i7j-rups

LaTeX and Neovim for technical note-taking
I know this doesn't solve your problem directly, but I recommend people to try out Djot[0], a markup language from the author of CommonMark.
Djot has a single well-defined spec, and most of the basic formatting has the same syntax as (a) Markdown, so switching is pretty painless. It has as a main goal to be legible and visually aesthetic as-is, just like Markdown.
What Djot adds is its _predictability_. Nested formatting, precedence order, line breaks behavior, nested blocks, mixed inline and block formatting, custom attributes are all laid out precisely in the spec in a thought-out manner. Till this day I still can't remember how to put line break within a list item in Markdown (and I'm sure there're more than one way).

Pandoc
Worth noting that the author has also created a markup language, djot.

Augmenting the Markdown Language for Great Python Graphical Interfaces
Every time I see people doing something with Markdown, I wish they just replace it with support for Djot[0] instead. It is a Markdown alternative by the creator of Pandoc and CommonMark that fixes all of the most egregious mistakes, while being legible and visually pleasant as-is. It is also syntactically similar to Markdown, which should ease adoption.

HELP!!! Stuck forever
Are you using markdown? It might make sense to look at 'djot' as well: https://djot.net/; it's a new 'light' markup language conceived as a successor to commonmark; development is led by none other than John McFarlane (author of pandoc, & also led commonmark standardization) Djot makes it really easy to attach arbitrary attributes to block elements as well as inline elements; and the parser records source positions in the output -- all of which makes it really convenient keeping track of elements changing position or value.

Is there a way to send data from neovim in real-time to other applications? Want to create a neovim qmk bridge.
I have a simple script that sends a djot buffer (https://github.com/jgm/djot) to the parser, if there's a change, on the CursorHold event.

wiki.vim v0.6 is released
Since you mentioned you were considering moving to CommonMark, have you had time to look into Djot (also by jpm)? Djot is meant to be easier to parse, and I'm planning to write a tree-sitter grammar for it.
