To be fair, PDFs suck and the only software that handles them well is paid and proprietary
PDF gear is free (for now) and excellent
Proprietary :-/ but might still be interesting nevertheless
Thanks for sharing
Libreoffice is pretty decent with PDFs imo
Unfortunately in LibreOffice all the pages in a PDF need to render with the same orientation and size :/ It adds whitespace to pages to make them all the same size, and this whitespace remains even when exporting as PDF.
There's been a formal request made to change that, but it's been years with no movement.
From my experience, not very much, at least for editing PDFs without fucking up the fonts
I guess
Do Adobe PDF things handle all Google fonts?
I don't know. I just know that Acrobat works well, while Libreoffice barely works when editing (and in general the software was buggy)
Yeah, I've only used it a little bit so I don't really know
