So…yeah, I know about the ragebait. So…my gf is testing the waters with Linux, moving away from Mac. I have a cute Chuwi Minibook X laptop in which I installed KDE Neon for her, with a bit of a Mac theming. Could have chosen ElementaryOS, but ah well.
At any rate, her pain point is ADobe Acrobat, which she uses constantly to edit PDF files in all sort of ways, adding pictures, cutting/pasting parts on other PDFs, modifying paragraphs and changing the arrangements and so on… I’m having a bit of trouble making it run on Wine/Lutris/Bottles, and I’d like to know if there’s any other alternative that could cover some PDF editing properly in Linux. Any suggestions?
May I ask why she’s moving away from Mac? And also what problems are you having with bottles?
As for the alternatives, OnlyOffice is really good at editing PDF files. It treats them like their own office format, on the same level as docx and ppt
Well she found a Chuwi Mini X laptop and found it irresistibly cute. It’s a tiny 10" laptop. Comes with W11 by default, but was sluggish as hell so i removed it immediately. Much snappier on Linux.
Thanks I’ll try Onlyoffice. I think it messes the formatting on some more complex pdfs but let’s see.
