Re: Cross Post PDF Editor

I guess that depends on what sort of features you are looking for in 
an editor. I use OpenOffice.org and Scribus, primarily, to generate 
PDFs as an output format, but that's likely not what you mean. 

PDFEdit (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfedit) is an alternative, 
with some WYSIWYG tools, and deep functionality. PDF ToolKit 
(http://www.accesspdf.com/pdftk/) is a handy tool for scripting 
changes to PDFs.

It depends on your Linux distribution, but I've found several that 
have pdfedit in their 
repositories.
