There are a lot of great replacements for Adobe programs. If you're going to spend money, maybe try them out and then donate to the ones you like!

GIMP or Kita for video editing are solid, DaVinci Resolve is an excellent video editor, and now browsers like Firefox can edit PDFs! Adobe should get bent with their insane fees.

*image editing (instead of the first instance of "video editing"), and you probably meant Krita not Kita

I've found the free editors, including Firefoxs, will often treat an Adobe/AutoCad made PDF as a flat single image. Everything has been merged together. Adobe was the only thing that would let me still treat every line and box and text as individual.

Any suggestions?

I use and love gimp, but Photoshop does have great selection tools for easily removing backgrounds and objects. I can manually do it on gimp, but making the process easier is always nice.
