Can textmate show pdf files inline? If so, does it work with apples pdf replacement services?
Thanks

AFAIK not, but you probably could write a command which opens a pdf and then inserts its content as plaintext. (this isnt a official answer, its just AFAIK)

It depends on what you mean by inline. It can web-preview PDF files. The key example is the file
<html><head><meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0;URL=file:///tmp/test.pdf"></head><body></body></html>
which previews the PDF file /tmp/test.pdf. You can be more tricky and modify this example to have commands output PDF through the 'output is HTML' command; an example is the PDF LaTeX in the LaTeX Bundle.
I think Allan may eventually make TM open PDF directly as it's pretty much there if you have the Schubert PDF Browser Plugin.
What are apple's PDF Replacement Services? I know about the PDF Services discussed at http://www.apple.com/applescript/print/. If you describe what you want to happen, maybe we can collectively figure out how to do it.
This little editor is full of surprises!
