From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Thanks I've never heard of them and I'll check them out.
IMHO it's the best PDF editor out there, idk why Adobe is considered the standard PDF software when it's so terrible compared to PDF XChange. XChange editor has every possible tool I ever needed, you can move around objects, change text, move and rotate and crop pages etc. It's just so good. You can't even edit text in adobe acrobat properly because it will break the text layout, in XChange you can if you're careful with fonts, spacing, indents etc.
It's miles ahead of adobe acrobat and works in Linux as well, I know it's proprietary and pursists will hate me but it's my go to tool when I need to do anything serious with PDF in both windows and linux.
