this is off topic but I used the pdf editing and it is way more convenient with non fillable pdfs over using like libre draw or gimp or inkscape. nice and simple and not a lot of options. just enough to get done what needs to get done without cluttering it up.

Really? Can it integrate with Google drive? I might have to check this out.

I have to draw on pdfs (think, check things are correct, tick and cross things) and currently download from Google drive, use foxit, then reupload.

However foxit has commenced down the enshitification path (previously free features like pdf bookmarks now behind a pay wall), so I'm looking for alternatives.

I don't see why the source of the pdf would manner but I definately used it on a non editable one I would normally have to use draw or such for. it has 3 nice easy options. text box, draw, and insert image. both the first two you can choose the color. The text type and size matched my doc pretty well but im not sure if that is hapenstance or if it actually detects it and figures out a default per doc to be pretty close. Im really hoping its the latter. EDITED - one big thing of note is the text box does not overwrite the backgroud so any lines in the doc stay normal. many things I use end up pushing out the line which you then have to remove and use underline on your text which never looks right with the rest of the doc.
