Alex Block<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@arstechnica" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>arstechnica</span></a></span> So here's the question. Part of my web agency's service offering is <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/PDFRemediation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PDFRemediation</span></a> for <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/DigitalAccessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalAccessibility</span></a>. This requires <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Adobe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Adobe</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Acrobat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Acrobat</span></a>, which is only available on Windows. While we can run Windows in VirtualBox on Linux, as far as I'm aware there's no PDF software natively available im Linux that can replace the Windows version of Acrobat.</p><p>Maybe I have a knowledge gap (who doesn't!). Can anyone suggest a solution?</p>

In the procrss of freeing myself from Adobe monopoly, I’m looking for alternatives to the softwares I use the most. The main gap I’m encountering is with <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Acrobat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Acrobat</span></a>. </p><p>I’ve tried <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/PDFgear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PDFgear</span></a> and <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/PDFexpert" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PDFexpert</span></a> but none of them have the option to create and edit forms - they only offer the option to fill them. A nice to have would also be the possibility to set a specific initial view. </p><p>Are you aware of any software doing so, out there?</p>
