The pdf_parser attribute isn't set up for replacing "%src" or "%dest". In
short, it's not a command-line for the pdf program, it's just the location
of the program itself.
Why? Well the code initially didn't even bother to check for the existence
of acrobat--it just went ahead and called it. Since it couldn't find it on
my system, it sent lots of messages to stderr. So I fixed it and it checks
for the file before calling it.
But I wanted to get the code out reasonably soon. So I didn't have a chance
to completely test the code replacing "%src" or "%dest" or picking out the
first word from the pdf_parser attribute and checking the file. Something
wasn't working right and I had other (more serious) bugs jumping at me.
This will be in 3.1.0b2. But it's not really supported in 3.1.0b1. If
someone wants to beat me to a patch, great!
