As you did not tell what you expected, I guess the character encoding 
differs, and the strings for /Creator, /Producer, ... should look different.

You might give this snippet a try:

     QFile file("/home/marcelo/Documents/test.pdf");
     if (!file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly)) {
         qDebug() << "file open error";
         return;
     }

     // QByteArray ba_pdf = file.readAll();
     // qDebug() << ba_pdf;
     QTextStream ts(&file);
     ts.setCodec ("UTF-8");
     QString s_pdf = ts.readAll();
     qDebug() << s_pdf;

     file.close();

The "UTF-8" might need to be replaced by something else, depending on 
the encoding your file uses.
