Try "dpkg -L pm-utils" to list the package contents. It will also show
you where the documents are located. Like for all other packages too,
it is usually in /usr/share/doc/<package name>/. Using grep, you can
narrow your search accordingly:

[root]~ # dpkg -L pm-utils | grep doc
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils/README.debugging
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils/changelog.Debian.gz
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils/TODO.Debian
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils/README
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils/HOWTO.modules
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils/HOWTO.hooks.gz
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils/changelog.gz
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils/buildinfo.gz
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils/NEWS.gz
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils/README.distributions
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils/copyright
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils/AUTHORS
/usr/share/doc/pm-utils/TODO
[root]~ # dpkg -L pm-utils | grep bin
/usr/sbin
/usr/sbin/pm-powersave
/usr/lib/pm-utils/bin
/usr/lib/pm-utils/bin/service
/usr/lib/pm-utils/bin/pm-action
/usr/bin
/usr/bin/pm-is-supported
