  1. You may also try our software called PDF Studio. It works on Linux as well as Mac and Windows (one license can be installed on 2 computers on different OS).
    It can do a lot of what Adobe Acrobat can do including OCR.

  2. Make sure Linux users understand it is NOT free. The program gives a 30-day trial and places a watermark on any pdfs you edit unless you buy.

    • There are two versions of Master PDF Editor. Both require registration and are not Open Source. But there is a free version for Linux. When downloaded from the free link, is absolutely and forever free for non-commercial use, and has no watermark. This is not a free trial, although a free trial of the paid version is available for download.

  3. Where is the free link? I thought I had upgraded to the free version for Linux, but it sstopped working and all options are greyed out a few days after updating. There is now a little red button on it that says “Buy now.” I can only find downloads that say the same.
