Hello everyone. I am looking for a free open source replacement for Adobe Acrobat. I know I can read PDFs for free with Adobe Reader or FoxIt reader but I need to be able to read, edit, merge and create PDFs with it. Thanks!
That's assuming they have and pay for MS Office though.MS office also has pdf creating built in. not tried to edit one with it but i've created many using it's built in creator.
Yes. LibreOffice Draw let's you edit PDF.@QwerkyPengwen Thanks for the suggestions but what i need is just a tool like acrobat that let me modify pages, add pages, add pages edit pdf.
@Math Geek Hahaha yeah i have office I need a direct replacement for Acrobat. Be able to create pages and pdf documents. Like merging pdf, adding pages, removing pages.
Yes. LibreOffice Draw let's you edit PDF.
Don't know where you seem to get the idea that it doesn't after I just stated that it does lol.
I suggest trying it out. If you end up not liking the way it does things, or if there is a very specific thing you are trying to do that it can't do for you, then your other option is to try and use the free version of PDF Element by Wondershare.
I haven't ever used it myself, but it is recommended as a good alternative, however, that might be for the paid version and not the free version.
All you can really do is try it out and find out.

I'm pretty sure you get to choose what software gets installed.
Just use your browser as a PDF viewer. Unless you want to do heavy PDF editing and what not. 👩🏿🦲🙈💯✝
but I need to be able to read, edit, merge and create PDFs with it. Thanks!
the software called "Draw" is the one you would use to edit PDFOk and which one should I install?
so for the fun of it, i opened a 1100 page pdf in word. i was able to edit it any way i wanted to and then resave it as a pdf.
it will merge multiple documents and of course you can delete whatever you feel like. if you already have word installed, i don't see any reason to pay for something else. it works like i thought it would.
