18:39:20 <keyzs> pdf editor i there any portable?
18:39:23 <keyzs> is
18:43:55 <TPFC-SYSTEM> There is Free PDF Editor: http://www.portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=1714
18:44:05 <gluxon> keyzs: I know we have several apps that can export to PDF (LibreOffice)
18:44:58 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Yeah, LibreOffice is a good idea if you can create a document from stratch instead of editing an existing one.
18:47:04 <keyzs> gluxon i wanna write on the pdf
18:47:07 <keyzs> editor does it?
18:47:29 <gluxon> The one TPFC-SYSTEM linked to does it.
18:47:33 <keyzs> i have a form to fill that is on pdf
18:47:37 <gluxon> But I've never tried it, so I can't confirm.
18:48:24 <TPFC-SYSTEM> Actually I just read the comments on that page: "It shouldn't be included in as a PDF editor.
18:48:24 <TPFC-SYSTEM> All it is is a rich text editor that 'prints to PDF'." :(
18:48:28 <gluxon> keyzs: There are generally very few programs that can edit PDF's other than Adobe's Suite.
18:48:41 <keyzs> yep
18:48:50 <keyzs> but i hate installing acrobat
18:48:52 <gluxon> Most are payware, which is why you don't find any here.
18:48:56 <gluxon> Yeah.
18:49:17 <gluxon> keyzs: Are you sure whoever wants that form filled out isn't asking you to print it?
18:49:50 <gluxon> It's a bit weird to ask forms be filled in PDF format.
18:51:57 <keyzs> they probably want it printed
18:52:04 <keyzs> but i cant do it like that
18:52:08 <keyzs> im out of cash
18:52:17 <keyzs> so i wanna send it via email filled
18:52:45 <gluxon> keyzs: Hm.. are you experienced enough to export it as an image and write on top of than with Paint, or GIMP?
18:53:03 <keyzs> thats an ideia
18:53:09 <keyzs> i guess i have to do like that
18:53:54 <gluxon> Wait.
18:54:02 <gluxon> keyzs: I found this for you, but it's not Portable -> http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfedit/
18:54:12 <keyzs> http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ly4XCEJAkzo/TKDcK36hecI/AAAAAAAAAD8/sIDAjYL2qbQ/s400/Candidatura+ao+Exerc%C3%ADcio+da+Ca%C3%A7a+em+ZCM.jpg
18:54:18 <keyzs> its something like this on pdf
18:54:39 <keyzs> i alredy checked pdfedit
18:55:14 <keyzs> but this one i have to install
18:55:38 <gluxon> keyzs: http://portableapps.com/node/21646
18:55:53 <keyzs> saw this one too http://gscan2pdf.sourceforge.net/
18:56:17 <gluxon> PDF-XChange Viewer (link above) has the ability to export to a image.
18:56:26 <gluxon> I think it has very basic editing, but not fully featured.
18:56:46 <keyzs> if i have an image i can edit it 4sure
18:57:55 <keyzs> gonna do like the one you said
18:58:03 <keyzs> pdf to image then image to pdf
18:58:43 <gluxon> That is probably what I would do as well.
19:01:49 <keyzs> this is super stupid writing on an image to send this

22:35:25 <GizmoBot> GordCaswell is a PortableApps.com developer
22:37:00 <GordCaswell> Future reference for anyone asking about filling out PDF's like keyz was: I do that regularly, using the typewriter function of Foxit Reader, and then just saving the PDF. Not ideal, but it works great.
22:38:17 <gluxon> GordCaswell: Great.
22:38:52 <GordCaswell> Just figured having multiple ways to tell people never hurts :)
22:39:32 <gluxon> GordCaswell: BTW, in a comment, you said Java apps weren't being released to due a comment from John.
22:39:39 <gluxon> What was that comment from John?
22:42:40 <GordCaswell> Hmm..hang on, I'm going to switch to my computer and find it.

22:52:12 <GordCaswell> gluxon, I can't find the thread where i said that at the moment, but i think i was referencing this phrase on the ready for release page: "We won't be releasing Java or .NET apps just yet."
22:52:28 <gluxon> I know.
22:52:37 <gluxon> I saw that, but the reason given is outdated.
22:53:00 <gluxon> Oracle licensing issues have long been solved, jPortable is in the directory.
22:53:08 <GordCaswell> true. There may have a specific comment by John that I was referring to, but I haven't found it yet.
22:53:22 <gluxon> I don't remember a comment like that though.
22:54:04 <gluxon> Eclipse Portable has been in dev for years..
22:54:21 <gluxon> I think I can honestly say it is the oldest app still in development and maintained to this day. :'(
22:56:58 <GordCaswell> Yeah, hopefully we're able to push it out soon now. Not sure what we're waiting on for it.
23:06:30 <gluxon> Neither am I.
