You don't "extract" a torrent file, as they contain little data to begin with, and none of it would be useful in another form. Their purpose is to instruct a BitTorrent client on what tracker to connect to to download a file, along with checksum information for the file. For Linux, the most common BitTorrent clients are Transmission, KTorrent, and Vuze.

How do you convert a torrent file to pdf?

A torrent file is a set of instructions for a "torrent application" to find and download the files described in the torrent; it does not contain the actual file, and will never be useful as a PDF or any other type of text document. As such, the user of a torrent file will need a torrent application, such as BitTorrent, to download the files referenced in the torrent file. Properly installed, a torrent application should automatically start downloading any files referenced by the torrent automatically. Assuming the torrent refers to a PDF file, once the download is complete, there will be a PDF file in the download folder that can be opened by any PDF viewer.
