Hi,
I am required to annotate a pdf file for proof-reading and I was wondering what users would recommend for easy use with Fedora 17. I looked online some and came up with xournal, PDFescape, Crocodoc: the last two are some online resource. I tried xournal but was not impressed.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks and best wishes, Rannan

you'll hate the answer to this, but pay the (at the time) $62 for pdf studio like i did:

i went through *exactly* what you did -- i spend a fair bit of time proofreading others' PDF files, and i wanted an easy way to annotate simply with the use of yellow, sticky notes. i wasted way too much time looking for the OSS solution -- ran across PDF studio, paid for it, deliriously happy with it, never looked back.

Have you tried Okular? (yum install okular). It supports annotations.

For years I looked for a such tool. Now, I am very happy with the free tool PDF-XChange Viewer:

I use it with Wine, and it works great!
Note, if you have Fedora 17 64bit, you still have to install wine.i686 (otherwise you can get errors during file saving)

Not in a way that is compatible with Adobe Reader X and other popular tools.
