There are a number of PDF consumers, many of them are open source. In no
particular order:

Poppler
Ghostscript
MuPDF
pdf.js
xpdf

Evince (uses Poppler I believe)
Sumatra (uses MuPDF)

There are many others, Google will find more for you. Since these are
open source projects the source code is available for all of them.

Open the file with an editor that allows binary view, like Emacs.

1. The source code of a PDF file is not human-readable. It looks like
this and lots more:

2. You can convert it to Postscript using pdf2ps, then it is at least
ASCII text, but still not easily human-readable (you need to learn the
Postscript language):

3. If you want the source code of the document, you need to use the
application that generated it, like LaTeX, Word, InDesign, XPress, etc.

Can you explain what you want to do?
