Linux Replacements for Windows Programs

[torreydale]

Install Xournal.  You can use it to annotate PDF files.  You can find it in Menu > System > Install/Remove Software.  After it's installed, open your PDF using Xournal and you can annotate it that way.

My printer is down.  So I've used Xournal to fill, sign, and date PDFs and I email/fax them back to the senders.

[Dragoljub]

Is there any Linux lite software with which pdf files could be edited, for example pdf forms which could be filled in windows adobe reader (forms that are made in a way that they could be filled (not changed) and printed)? And how to install software in Linux os, is it only done through terminal or it could be done in other way?

[br1anstorm]

Waaah!  Don't expect me to edit code that determines what someone else's post looks like...... I wouldn't know where to start, and I'd be bound to mess it all up. 

Much wiser for me to leave it to others with the skills (and motivation) to add more software programs - like Clementine - to the list in the OP and eventually to the Help Manual.  But the suggestion is on the table (so to speak).

I'll place the original post code here so people can repost with updated information. Please be careful with your editing, I won't have time to continuously edit peoples errors. Cheers:)

Since the originator of this thread seems to have moved on, and the list has now been incorporated into the Help Manual, I'm not sure if this is still open for further suggestions.

But if it is, I would just suggest adding Clementine (as Misko did very early in this thread) to the list of music-player alternatives to Windows Media Player and Winamp.  I believe it is derived from Amarok (which is listed, and which I have not tried).  But I find Clementine the most user-friendly and satisfying of all the music organisers and players I have seen.

One interesting feature is that it is also available for Windows.  Since I still use Windows for some purposes - and find Windows Media Player very tedious - I now use Clementine in both Windows and Linux OSs.  Double benefit, and no need to adapt to different GUIs.

Hey, whishising you all the best.
Come back to visit us sometimes.
Internet is everywhere, you can't move that far.
I hope you'll continue to use Linux. It doesn't really mater which distro.

[avj]

This is sad news indeed, but if you need to move on I am sure everyone will understand.  You have made my time on the forum more enjoyable,  thank you.

This is a sad/bad news , guess one s gotta do what one wants to do .

You had good reps on my end .

[bitsnpcs]

avj - It is a good suggestion, I have done that now, credit given and thanks clicked .
It's not related at all, I just stated it that etc.
I apologize if for making you feel I imply it was related. It is not so.

[avj]

Why in the world would you leave the forum?  What I posted was merely a suggestion. This is your thread and you have done an incredible job of keeping it up. 

[bitsnpcs]

I move from LL forum.

[altman]
