Question

PDF

Is there any free offline pdf editor? Operations are as simple as possible - overlay an image on a document, insert text, delete existing text / images. Everywhere, either online or paid combines.

Answer 1

LaTeX

Answer 2

The PDF format is not designed for editing at all. Even Adobe Acrobat - an editor from the creator of the format - is pretty bad at this.
Plus, printing, in which PDF is really massively used, is gradually dying out, and for PDF / A archive files, editing is not required at all.
Overlaying something on a PDF is more convenient to do from layout programs that import this file as an image and allow you to add some elements, and then output the result as a PDF. Ideally, Adobe InDesign works with this (for obvious reasons), you can feel the free Scribus .
Editing is the parsing of the format into the original PostScript, while various effects may "fly" and the fonts used may not be found. Even in tools from Adobe. If the PDF is simple, you can try the free Inkscape .
In extreme cases - PDF rasterization and editing everything your heart desires in a graphics editor. Gimp can do that too.

Answer 3

In general, MS Word, starting from 2016, can open pdf for editing. From there, you can also save back to pdf.
