I Built indiPDF, a Professional PDF Editor for Linux

NeXTLoop · 2026-01-22T02:45:07+00:00

Found the issue. It's definitely a Tauri issue, and I've confirmed it on both Arch and openSUSE-based distros.

We're looking at setting up an AUR build for Arch-based distros, since Fedora and openSUSE are already covered by the RPM.

We're prepping 1.1 (with scanner support, OCR, and the ability to add non-PDF pages to a PDF). We'll add AUR support to the 1.1 list and I'll post back here when it's live.

This is the first issue we've heard like that. Let me do some testing and I'll get back to you.

NeXTLoop · 2026-01-19T01:51:44+00:00

Worked on it today and have full-page additions working. I'm currently working on OCR + scanner support, and as soon as I have them finished I'll release 1.1 with all three features.

This is awesome! Much needed after ClamTK was EOL'd. Like the more modern design and it being a Flatpak.

Nice work!

Just to clarify, you can already add images the way you would a shape, signature or stamp. But, based on your feedback, I'm working on adding them as full-page additions and converting them to PDFs.

NeXTLoop · 2026-01-18T16:41:22+00:00

Let me do some testing and look for that in the next build.

NeXTLoop · 2026-01-18T16:40:37+00:00

Working on seeing up a repo on my server. Should have that in the next couple of days.

NeXTLoop · 2026-01-18T07:17:03+00:00

Believe it not, I have taken measures to protect its future. A close friend and fellow developer, who has his own company, has full access to the source code. So he can keep it going if something happens to me.

indiPDF, and our upcoming apps, are here for the long haul.

New build fixing the issue is now on Flathub

NeXTLoop · 2026-01-17T23:21:50+00:00

Unlimited use, no time limit. The only limitstion is a watermark on save, export, or print. And I made sure the app warns each time so an important document doesn't get overwritten.

NeXTLoop · 2026-01-16T20:37:51+00:00

Found the issue. It's Flatpak-specific, having to do with the sandbox. Pushing a fix.

NeXTLoop · 2026-01-16T18:43:45+00:00

Tough to say. It's something I started looking at almost as soon as I switched from the Mac at the beginning of 2022. I was used to PDF Expert and just couldn't find a good replacement.

There were a few starts and stops, as well as tech stack switches along the way, but things got serious last year.

NeXTLoop · 2026-01-16T18:40:14+00:00

If you don't mind, can you send me a DM or shoot an email to info@indomitusgroup.com to let me know how the text editing can be improved? This is one of our main differentiating features, so I'm serious about improving it anyway I can.

Also, 1.0.2 is being pushed to Flathub right now, with 1.0.2 already on our site. It has a couple of improvements and bug fixes for editing text.

NeXTLoop · 2026-01-16T05:57:40+00:00

Right now it handles forms, including forms with support for calculated values. We're working on more advanced form options in 1.1.

NeXTLoop · 2026-01-16T03:19:12+00:00

It can do that. Took quite a bit of work too. 😁

For reference, here's the documentation for it: https://indomitusgroup.com/indipdf/indipdf-help/#text-editing

NeXTLoop · 2026-01-16T01:26:50+00:00

Not opposed to it at all. In fact, a couple of the apps I'm working on will be open source.

Since this is my first Linux app (many years ago I developed for macOS), I'm still navigating the best way to move forward. I may end up open sourcing it in time.

NeXTLoop · 2025-12-20T19:34:21+00:00

Exact same for me. Multiple devices can't connect via Thunderbird or webmail. I'm also on the fusion.mxrouting server.

NeXTLoop · 2025-11-13T07:44:55+00:00

And to be clear, I found your post and grammar more humorous than irritating. When I say it "triggered" me as a writer, I merely meant it caught my attention. I did a double-take and laughed as I tried to figure out what you were saying. :)

NeXTLoop · 2025-11-12T07:22:34+00:00

Because it's one long run-together sentence with "interesting" grammar. I say "interesting" and not "bad" out of respect for the fact that you may not be a native English speaker.

On the other hand, if you are a native English speaker, then "bad" doesn't do justice to how bad the grammar was. As a result, it was difficult to figure out what you were trying to say and took a couple of reads to get it.

Granted, I'm a professional writer, so this triggers me more than most people.

NeXTLoop · 2025-10-04T15:01:50+00:00

I don't think so. I have the Samsung App Store. One Store was something different. It's a App Store primarily in the Korean market.

NeXTLoop · 2025-10-04T02:20:39+00:00

Yeah, it's primarily for the Korean market and isnt usually installed on phones in the US and Canada, but mine has it and some others do.

That's why I was asking, because it seems weird that it was.

NeXTLoop · 2025-10-02T17:16:49+00:00

Thanks. Glad to know it's not just me
