Tbf, most Microsoft software sucks. Everything they touch gets sticky and moldy, like SwiftKey and Skype.

You can edit PDFs on libre?

[–] Yerbouti@sh.itjust.works 3 points 15 hours ago

You can edit pdf in firefox lol

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 4 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Yes. Might depend on how the PDF was saved or if it's protected, but it can open and export PDF format. Gimp can too, however that would be really more graphics editing as doing text is cumbersome.

Gimp is really bad with exporting large PDFs. Like 60 pages and it crashed my 16gb ram laptop because it ran out of memory after like spending at least an hour.

To be fare, you can open PDF in Word and it converts it to editable docx
