What is the best PDF viewer for DOS? (Users)

I tried download XPDF package for DOS but it doesn't contain XPDF.EXE just this files:

Výpis adresáře H:\1SOFT\_pdf\xpdf-3.02pl2-dos6

06.11.2007 15:58 333 908 PDFFONTS.EXE
06.11.2007 15:58 334 336 PDFIMGS.EXE
06.11.2007 15:58 335 552 PDFINFO.EXE
06.11.2007 15:58 357 316 PDFTEXT.EXE
06.11.2007 15:58 370 496 PDFTOPS.EXE
5 souborů, 1 731 608 bajtů

And GhostScript is AFAIK for working with PS/EPS files. And it needs GhostView for graphics output. It probably will not directly display PDF? I'm going to try it.

p.s. sometimes I need to be in pure DOS (not emulaor) but need to read some PDF. And don't want to reboot of course :)
