I have done extensive research in past when i was considering switching from mac to linux. Came to the conclusion that there is no viable open source alternative for the mac preview app unfortunately. My requirements where:
- Fill forms.
- Add text and markup.
- Reorganize/add/remove pages.
- Redact parts of the document. (should also safely delete underlying text data, without rasterization of the whole document)
- Add image of signature without rasterization of the whole document.
This [1] is a long discussion i found about the topic.
