The law firm that I work for is has finally decided that we should embrace Linux.

When of the key programs that we use a PDF Editor that has e-sign capabilities. Most people use Adobe and I use Foxit.

The problem with Foxit is that it doesn't run natively on Linux. I have to use WINE which is already going to be a problem cause we need a program that works out of the box. Having a program work out of the box cuts down on IT support and makes it easier for everyone to use.

The features needed:

  1. Bookmark
  2. Move/delete/insert pages
  3. Redact
  4. Bates numbering
  5. E-sign
  6. Change orientation of the page
  7. Resize pages
  8. Add notes
  9. Highlight
  10. Charges in Canadian dollars
  11. Offline program
  12. User friendly

Bonus points: It's a non-American company

The ones that I have looked at:

  1. PDF Filler (not a fan of it being almost 100% cloud based)
  2. Master PDF Editor
  3. PDF Studio

Edit: Distro would most likely be Mint or Zorin.
