Quite contrary, they go through tutorial and learn whati is in
tutorial. But it will take few hours, one day. Then it needs habit.
Easier is to click and click n for next and p for previous. Once you
find reference click F5 and describe the item.
That is easier than teaching people Emacs. Then group of people can
capture PDF references quite efficiently.
