Master PDF editor is quite nice but, strangely, when it comes to
filling in
PDF forms evince works better I've found. However if you need to actually
fill in a PDF that doesn't have form fields master PDF editor is the way to
go.

If you don't mind going beyond the repos, look for Master PDF Editor.
It comes in rpm format, so you should be able to install it. I think
it beats h*** out of all the Linux FOSS pdf programs. Try it and see!

MasterPdfEditor is horribly slow to display my pdfs, which contain matplotlib
pdfs with thousands of data points. evince is very fast at this.
