Description pavel sanda 2017-07-31 18:17:15 UTC

I do not know what is gentoo policy WRT binary packages with specific licensing. 

But at least I would like to bring the attention to the following project:
http://code-industry.net/pdfeditor.php

After some testing I reckon that this is first pdf editor ported on linux which really works and not some beta quality attempts we know from history...

Ebuilds for both x86 and amd64 archs can be found in various overlays.

We prefer source based packages, but binary packages are allowed too.

BTW: Inkscape is very powerful as PDF editor.

> BTW: Inkscape is very powerful as PDF editor.

My epxerience is that fonts get screwed with inkscape when editing PDF.
