Adam Reichold proposed the following answer:
Hello Alan,

that archive contains only the source code and most users will install
packages provided by their distributions. If you do want to build from
source, then

> qmake qpdfview.pro

is the correct first step. This  will create Makefiles to perform the
actual build which is then triggered via

> make

which will produce a qpdfview binary which can be run in place or
installed via

> make install

Could you be more specific in  what way running qmake does not work? Did
you install the necessary development packages to build Qt-based
software on Fedora?

Best regards,
Adam
