PDf editor to highlight PDF files

Post by maronvomra »

Hi all,

I am reading some ebooks and would like to know if any editor is there in mint which have highlighting features so that I can highlight important lines in
the books and save it.

Thank you.

There is a PDF editor available Menu>System>Administration>Synaptic Package Manager and search for PDF editor
I'm not sure of it's exact capabilities as I haven't tried it - but it may do what you need.

You can use foxit pdf reader, adobe... havent tried those

Also Okular has this feature but as i remember, you have klick everytime on the button, if you want highlight something new. After poppler update Okular crashes...

Foxit and Adobe reader for Linux do not have edit possibilities. Xournal does not save in PDF-format. Okular is cumbersome as is does not have an undo funtion. Besides: viewing a file edited by Okular with f.i. Adobe Reader does not show the changes made by Okular.
I need to view the edited files in Windows as well.
