[vox] Best Linux PDF Editor

[Darth Borehd]

These are PDFs made by several different groups with various versions of
Adobe Acrobat Pro going back to the early 2000s.  Only the PDFs exist now.
They range in length from a single page to hundreds of pages. They need to
be updated with new information.
