I am considering transferring from Windows to Xubuntu. When using Windows, I always use Foxit reader to do annotation. I am wondering are there any alternatives in Xubuntu?

Thanks!

  • Foxit reader has a version for Gnu/Linux. – kyodake Aug 10 '15 at 00:43
  • @kyodake But I am not able to install it successfully on my laptop. Are there any tricks in installation? – username123 Aug 10 '15 at 00:49

  • There are several options, if they do not work, can you explain what you tried and why it did not work. – Panther Aug 10 '15 at 02:53

evince can do annotations but unfortunately only Ubuntu 15.04 contains version 3.16 that can also remove annotations.

PDF Studio is cross-platform (run on Java) but commercial. Check out their website: https://www.qoppa.com/pdfstudio/

I've seen similar functionality in Adobe Acrobat (it seems to allow the same kind of highlights). Foxit is another good one, now on Linux.
