PDF - Simple Annotater
I did a search here and with DDG, and turned up an overload of info.
All I'm looking for is recommendations for a simple app that will view and annotate pdf files offline. So, for example: - highlight text - mark comments tied to original pdf text - perhaps import images such as jpg or png Simple, basic. Thanks. |
I use LibreOffice Draw for this - but I do NOT do it very often and I have had problems with bigger/more complex PDF files. Worth a mention.

Maybe Foxit? Anyone used it and care to comment? |

@hydrurga: Thanks. Installed it. Will mess with it for a couple of days and report back.

OK today I installed Master PDF Editor and Foxit Reader, and messed with them a bit. Initial impressions.
Master PDF is very full featured, more than I'm ever likely to want or use. As a result it is more complicated to use and will have a steeper learning curve. Not sure if it's worth it for my needs. Nice GI and seems to have a useful online manual. Foxit Reader - Free version - is very stripped down and basic, and consequently is much easier to get up and running with. It appears not to be able to insert images, which I want, although that's probably available in the paid and enterprise versions. Thanks for the input so far; any further suggestions appreciated. |
Look at xournal
|
@teckk: Thanks. xournal is interesting but a rather indirect solution in that it doesn't actually work in the pdf document but creates a drawing layer that can later be merged.
