ever since i got an ipad (the small one), it constantly blows my mind that iOS lets you edit PDFs. and i don't just mean the usual freehand scribble, but actually editing a PDF:
- splitting and merging
- extracting any number of pages to a separate PDF
- inserting new pages anywhere in an existing document
- converting anything else to PDF without having to go through some virtual printer bullshit
(and obviously there's also the typical stuff like form/text insertion, rotating pages, and OCR which is actually a systemwide feature but also worth mentioning)
like this is the kind of thing people usually give exorbitant amounts of money to Adobe for. in iOS it doesn't even get its own app - it's all just context menu options within Files.
how the hell is this not like, the #1 feature mentioned in all the painfully corporate ads?
and why, oh why is literally everyone else letting Adobe rule the """PDF market"""?
