Coming over from windows again. I’ve got pretty much everything figured out. I even got a VM going with my CAD software so I don’t need to switch between Windows! I was super proud of myself on that one. The last thing I’m having trouble with…

I use pdfxchange for my PDF editor. It works great in wine but they don’t have a specific Linux release. (If there is a good PDF editor that is Linux native let me know, I need good Mark up and dimensioning tools that can scale off of the drawings). I’m trying to set it to open PDFs by default but can’t figure it out. Does someone have a good (easy) way to do it?

    Yeah I can read them fine but for work I need to be able to mark them up and modify them. It has to be powerful with Mark up tools and most importantly I need to be able to dimension things to scale.

      Like I said, LibreOffice Draw can edit PDFs. Try it out and see if it’s suitable for your needs

        Thanks, I have tried it but it didn’t fulfill my requirements. Master PDF was the best but it was laggy for some reason. I’m gonna try it again if the solutions listed by other commenters don’t work.
