I’m looking for a pdf editor that has the ability to change only 4 characters of text in a 498 page pdf. The best I found was a how to using gimp to edit the pdf and krita to print it back out to pdf.
I was able to get the sofware installed.
But if you look at the how to How to Edit PDF Files in Linux Using GIMP: 7 Steps **Open GIMP, and then open the PDF document you wish to edit. For multiple page documents, it is easier on your computer to edit them one page at a time. If you choose more than one page, they will open in individual windows." then “**Make the necessary changes to the document.” ****it says that I’ll have to edit them one page at a time. So how do I edit one page of a 498 page pdf? Then put it back in once edited?

Ugh.
Have a look at pdftk tool kit and pdfedit. The GUI for the first one is
pdftk-qgui. Maybe you have to get them from packman.

Why did you put a space in the middle? “pdftk-qgui” is a single word,
and it is a GUI, not a CLI command. And it will not be installed, you
have to do that, too.

Just open libreoffice and then open the pdf using it.
