Just switched to Linux and this is one thing I haven’t found a good solution for yet.

My only real use case is the “fill and sign” features in Adobe Reader. That allows filling with text boxes wherever I want and importing my actual handwritten signature which looks indistinguishable from print > sign > scanned.

It's garbage at CJK. Half the time your input characters disappear after saving and exiting

I have never experienced using CJK but you should raise the issue

Check this: https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF

Since you are on Linux just Start it in a Docker container locally and you are golden :)

PDFxchange is good

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

I use various apps for editing PDFs.

  1. Firefox for quick and small edits
  2. Xournal++ for typing and drawing over the document to make a new document
  3. LibreOffice Draw, also for the above

Anyone ever used free tools like pdfescape or others?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Use ILovePDF, it's online so it works for everyone, and it is free and easy to use

ILovePDF is wonderful. If your company needs to be HIPPA compliant their subscription w/desktop app is cheaper than most others.
