Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone knew of a FOSS editing app to use on PDFs, just to add text and and mark things out, I tried GNU image editor but it just works on images exclusively. Any ideas are appreciated, thanks.

Okular and Xournal++ both do well for annotating an existing PDF, but you can only add not remove or modify.

For modifying, LibreOffice will do it at the expense of the layout getting seriously mangled even on the simplest of PDFs.
