I would prefer if this was a web site, I honestly will use this maybe 5 times a year and I am too lazy too install and uninstall every time I need to use it, but awesome project, still.

Never trust a web app with a pdf that contains sensitive data.

If at least is FLOSS and can be self-hosted.

For example, as a Nextcloud application.

That's obvious, but for mi homework I think that I do not need security. Cool tool tbh

Same, or just books or comics.

Decently good websites of this sort already exist, and as @DePingus mentioned, it wouldn't offer a secure solution for medical, legal, bank, voting, etc. documents.

For OP, thanks for sharing this!

Yep, way better than the alternatives like PDFMod or PDFsam.

I notice it has a windows installer. How does GTK work on windows?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 years ago (1 children)

This might answer your question : https://www.gtk.org/docs/installations/windows/

Note: These instructions are intended for developers wanting to create Windows applications based on GTK, not for end-users. On Windows, GTK applications are typically bundled with GTK already, so end-users do not need to worry about how to install GTK itself.

Huh I wondered if it was possible to bundle the whole toolkit with it. That seems to be how a lot of windows apps tend to be anyways.
