Re: Editing PDFs?

>>I don't understand why we have to have TWO very similar programs for viewing PDF's and ZERO programs for editing them

Well, that's not too hard to understand: untill today, no-one bothered to create a pdf editor.

But joining okular and ligiture does not mean that we would be closer to a pdf editor than in the current situation.

if you thinks its weird to have TWO applications doing the same thing, checkout kde-apps.org and you will find many areas where there are even more applications available for the same job..
Would merging them all mean that we would get one great application that can do it all?
Don't think so..

And as last note: ligiture and okular did not start as similar applications: both started as viewers for a certain task, and while they mature they started to grow in each others direction.
