Looking online, google seems to think open source = free (as in price), so thanks for that google.

I currently use Sumatra PDF and I like the minimalist design (wish they had a night mode though), but it can't fill forms. For that I still have Firefox, but tbh for some reason Firefox doesn't register in my head as a pdf reader or editor.

I also sometimes need to create PDFs from jpegs, and I'd love it if one program could do all that, instead of having to switch to different ones.

I'm on Windows btw, can't use linux packages for this.

Thanks!

I'm not sure that it covers all the use-cases you mention, but I would also recommend Okular. As far as I'm aware, it's the most feature-rich open-source PDF viewer available.

If you don't want to use the Microsoft Store, you can also download builds from KDE's build server: https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/Okular_Release_win64/
