• Rnote – An open-source vector-based drawing app

  Please note that the original app was Xournal [1]. The one you link is a rewrite of the orignal (in C++) and is called Xournal++. [1] https://xournal.sourceforge.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Ask HN: When did you stop using printers and why?

  I do the using Xournal [1] which is tailor-made for creating annotations. It leaves the PDF as is, saving your edits to a sidecar file (*.xoj) which when loaded pulls in the original PDF. It exports edited documents to 'real' PDFs with selectable text etc. [1] https://xournal.sourceforge.net/ (packaged by most distributions). - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Is there good way to apply a hand written signature to a pdf in linux?

  If you don't mind the signature being raster (not vector), I've used Xournal for this in the past. It's extremely lightweight and easy. Just open the PDF file with Xournal, draw the signature, and then export it to PDF (Control + E). This will not rasterise the PDF itself (to the best of my knowledge), but rather just superimposes a layer containing your signature on top of the original PDF. Source: about 2 years ago

• The Xournal ++ app

  Xournal++ exists since 2013. Maybe you typoed and by your comment about abandoning you were referring to Xournal without the ++? The Xournal website even suggests to try Xournal++. Source: over 2 years ago

• Adobe Acrobat not provided by the university, how do you read/edit PDFs?

  Xournal works pretty well for me on GNU/Linux. You just have to turn on the "Legacy PDF Export" option. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Do you guys know of another platform where people can talk, but is less anonymous than reddit? Allows for more of a sense of connecting with real people in a safe way.

  Https://cptsdfoundation.org/ has a group that you can interact with using https://circle.so/. Membership is 5 bucks a month, and to me, while I was using it, it was a very welcoming community. Source: 7 months ago

• Tell HN: DuckDuckGo Search Results have jumped the shark

  Https://circle.so/pricing/ I would guess even if DDG protects your privacy, it would use information (perhaps search and or site history) the browser is broadcasting regardless to filter results it pipes to the end point. For example I never see quora results (honestly it's been some years so I'd forgotten they existed still) as some members in this thread were annoyed with and paid to be done with them ...

• Which nocode tool to build an online academy?

  What is the reason you are trying to go custom? https://circle.so this is probably the best platform I have seen. Big and small companies use it (even webflow) so it has great adoption works well. I would stay away from a custom solution when there are wonderful tools like circle out there. Source: about 1 year ago

• Show HN: Engineering Book Club

  I am also curious about the logistics of the club. It seems to be this: https://circle.so. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Feeling a bit stuck

  You could even possibly use something like https://circle.so if the app would eventually move in a more community based way, it has a lot you can do in the backend with automation. Source: about 1 year ago
