      Hi, I’m planning to make an all-in-one portable entertainment system for long plane travels with Retropie for playing games, Kodi for playing multimedia and a PDF reader for reading ebooks. As far as I know, external apps, like Kodi, must be accessed to from Ports menu. Is it possible to access qpdfView too, a PDF reader preinstalled on Raspbian? If so, could someone explain me how to do it?

      Thank you In advance.

        Wouldn't it be easier to install the desktop and other programs that require it (including a PDF reader/viewer) and then start only the desktop for those programs ?
