    To be fair, PDFs suck and the only software that handles them well is paid and proprietary

      Libreoffice is pretty decent with PDFs imo

        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

        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.

          The Linux Foundation really should start sponsoring them.

        Proprietary :-/ but might still be interesting nevertheless
