basic PDF editor for Ubuntu - tips?

[David]

Hi,

could someone please tell me what they recommend as a basic PDF editor
with GUI for Ubuntu?

Basically I would like to A) be able to edit the meta information in an
existing PDF (saving a webpage to PDF via "print" in Ubuntu 8.04 does a
great job, but the title of the webpage isn't carried over into the
PDF's tag info - it's all blank), and B) to be able to delete a page
from the PDF.

I've looked in Synaptic and seen PDF Editor there, but there are very
mixed opinions about it in forums I looked at. E.g.:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
http://www.wikihow.com/Edit-PDF-Files-in-Linux-Using-PDFEdit

"This is still labelled "Alpha" software by the author, it shows, so
don't get your hopes up that it will work for you to any extent other
than a few functions. Most annoying is it randomly saves the page you've
last edited as completely blank."

[He mentions these too:]
scribus
flpsed

"pdfedit crashes my system, when i do get to save any work, it puts all
pages over each other in one page -> garbage.

scribus does not want to load my pdf -> not useful.

flpsed looks like a program from the 90s that doesn’t do much more than
display the pdf."

Thanks for any tips from your experience!
