PDFCraft
PDFCraft is a free, privacy-focused PDF toolkit
PDFCraft is an extensible toolkit for creating, editing, and transforming PDF documents with both a graphical interface and a scripting API, making it useful for users ranging from casual editors to automated document processors. At its core, the project provides a clean, modern UI where you can rearrange pages, annotate text, insert images, fill forms, and export to multiple formats, all without needing a heavyweight commercial PDF suite. But beyond manual editing, it also offers a programmable layer so developers can write scripts to batch process documents, generate templated reports, or extract structured data from PDFs for integration in workflows. The design emphasizes quality and compatibility: output PDFs render accurately across readers, preserve metadata, and support interactive elements like hyperlinks and form fields. -

GenOffice
An AI-native office suite for macOS and Windows
GenOffice is an AI-native desktop office suite for macOS and Windows built as five Electron applications sharing a common engine layer. It provides dedicated editors for Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations, and PDFs, plus a shell that hosts the suite. AI editing is integrated directly into document state instead of being limited to a separate chatbot. Documents support block-level edits and diffs, while sheets, slides, and PDFs expose their state to a tool-calling agent. The suite uses specialized engines for DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, and PDF parsing, rendering, editing, and export. Its round-trip design applies narrow patches so untouched portions of original files remain intact. Shared packages provide agent logic, model streaming, search, internationalization, project storage, and interface components. -

Pandoc
The universal markup converter
Pandoc is a universal document converter able to convert files from a multitude of markup formats into another. With Pandoc, you have a swiss-army knife of a converter, able to convert practically any markup format into any other. Pandoc contains a Haskell library for conversions as well as a command-line tool that uses this library. It can convert to and from just about anything-- lightweight markup formats, HTML formats, documentation formats, ebooks, TeX formats, word processor formats and so much more. It understands several useful markdown syntax extensions, such as document metadata, footnotes, tables, and more. If you want strict markdown compatibility however, these extensions can be turned off. Pandoc is no doubt powerful and customizable, but it is important to note that its intermediate representation of a document is less expressive than many of the formats, so it may not produce perfect conversions every time. -

TinyTeX releases
Windows/macOS/Linux binaries and installation methods of TinyTeX
A lightweight, cross-platform, portable, and easy-to-maintain LaTeX distribution based on TeX Live. TinyTeX is a custom LaTeX distribution based on TeX Live that is small in size but functions well in most cases, especially for R users. If you run into the problem of missing LaTeX packages, it should be super clear to you what you need to do (in fact, R users won’t need to do anything). You only install LaTeX packages you actually need. Currently, TinyTeX works best for R users. Other users can use it, too, it is just that missing LaTeX packages won’t be automatically installed, and you need to install them manually. Or you can go to the extreme to install all packages (see FAQ 3 for how), but remember there are thousands of them. Installing or running TinyTeX does not require admin privileges, which means you no longer need sudo or your IT. You can even run TinyTeX from a Flash drive.
