pdftotext drops icon checkmarks in PDF tables, render instead

Feature or tier comparison tables in marketing PDFs often use image or vector icons for checkmarks. pdftotext -layout keeps the row labels and any text cells but silently drops the checks, so the table looks like most features are missing. Render just that page with pdftoppm -f N -l N -png -r 70 and read the image. A low DPI is enough and keeps the image small. Find the right page first by grepping the pdftotext output for the table header.
