Re: Highlighting PDFs

I use LibreOffice to open PDFs all the time. Not only do I fill them
out (including my 'signature' where required...ahem), but as long as
the PDF is not 'flattened' (rasterized), you could easily highlight
parts of it.

PDFs open in Draw. They are then saved using '.odg' suffix - but from
within LO Draw, you can of course export a new PDF. It's quite slick.
