Inkscape, which is free and open source, does a very competent job of taking part .pdfs and allowing you to modify them these days.
Firefox just added PDF editing to the native browser!
Just so yall know, Firefox added a pdf editor.
PDF is not a format designed for editing. It’s an export format designed to be a middle ground between a word processor and a printer.
You can bastardise extra layers onto it, but that’s about it.
It is always morally correct to pirate Adobe.
I had adobe Photoshop pirated for a while, butsomehow it shadow updated and adobe took away my access to using Photoshop without paying for it. That was for the most recent version of Photoshop. I guess adobe found out how to stop people from cracking the .exe.
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.
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?
