Adobe Acrobat replacement
I'm looking for a program with the same functionality as Adobe Acrobat, (i.e be able to edit pdf dokuments) in the KDE/Linux world. Anyone?
Ofcorse I use windows, how else would I get fresh air into the room?
Well, OpenOffice.org can save to PDF, but beyond that, I don't think so.
"Chopsticks require a person to use 64 muscles and 30 articulate movements simultaneously, which also acts in developing brain potential."
I read that someone is working on a PDF import filter for KWord.
Not the same thing as acrobat though.
You could ask Adobe when they'll release it for Linux.

While you at it, ask about Photoshop, Illustrator, and the rest of the family. :wink:

I think it is a good idea to have them deal with such request. But obviously one should request only software you'd buy, otherwise they are very likely to regard it as trolling.
I prefer using the "innocent" user technique like "I was about to purchase XYZ for my new computer but I could only find the Mac and the Windows version in your online store. Please point me to the correct location for the Linux version"

Ok, the main functionallity I am after is beeing able to extract and ocfcourse merge pages from different pdf documents.
As the the pdf file API is open it shouldn't be so hard to write a program with the above kind of functionallity, wouldn't it?.
I thought that the need for editing pdf documents would be quite wide spread. I at least depend a lot on it at work when compileing ducuments (for instance include handwritten test result sheets into a document).

Oh. I always thought it was a closed format and that's why there weren't PDF editors. Only viewers and the OpenOffice.org filter.

With kprinter you can create pdf-files from whatever application youre using.
kprinter is the default printing frontend in kde.

You could request Adobe to port it to Linux. Probably it will take a while :-)
