<p>I'm no expert on PDF editing but I bought the expensive version
of PDF Studio as part of my plan to get Windows off my business
computer when Windows 7 expires in 2019.</p>
<p>I don't think Foxit has an editor, just a reader for Linux.
Foxit for Windows is great and very powerful. Foxit for Windows
is better than PDF Studio, but PDF Studio is slowly getting
better. <br>
</p>
<p>Up until at least the recent update of PDF Studio, Foxit was much
better when I had to do cutting and pasting.</p>
<p>Up until the recent update of PDF Studio, the Linux version, when
printing a file to PDF, would not include the .pdf extension with
the result that PDF Studio could not bring up the pdf after the
file was printed. That has been fixed.</p>
<p>One area where the Linux version of PDF Studio is better than the
Windows version is printing to a printer. The Linux version
frequently prints garbage on a long file, say 40, 80, 120 pages or
so. The last long pdf I had to print I printed by rebooting into
Linux and using PDF studio to print the document on my Windows
partition. I could have printed it with Foxit, but wanted to test
the Linux version of PDF studio. It worked well.<br>
</p>
<p>One thing I've noticed though is that the default pdf reader on
Linux Mint, Document Viewer, brings up a pdf document faster than
PDF Studio.</p>
<p>Whatever drawbacks PDF Studio studio has I'm sticking with it as
the price of becoming completely Windows free in 2019.</p>

<div>I have seen Foxit, Master PDF, and PDF Studio are
commercial packages that work on Linux. Should I get one?
Is there a free option somewhere? </div>
