  1. I had no idea that Xournal++ had geometry tools. I discovered the compass and the speed square while doing some idle sketching for an upcoming coffee table build on the PineNote! This is the appropriate level of "CAD" for me at this stage of the build, graph paper with a protractor but super easy copy paste to visualize various combinations.

    This is open hardware running free and open source software, I love this so much!

  5. As a high school math teacher, I have really enjoyed the functionality of Xournal++ for making tutorial videos using my graphics tablet and OBS Studio. Integrated LaTeX is great, but I still have a bit of a wishlist of features that I haven't found as plugins just yet:

    1. A proper function grapher. I used to create/import via graphfree.com, but with updates to that site it is not as user-friendly as it once was. Creating/importing from DESMOS or GeoGebra is...okay, but not as great for my use case as graphfree once was. Something more native to Xournal++ would be nice.

    2. A skeuomorphic compass tool (for Geometry construction demonstrations). I know that it does have a compass tool, but students need to see how this would work with the physical device - where to place the "pointy end" and "pencil end" of a physical compass. (my old promethean board software and some other website I can't recall had one, which was great!)

    Always looking to learn more about FOSS tools to improve my math teaching!

    From what I read here, #Okular and #Xournal++ look promising.

    #inkscape may be capable of this, but it’s probably not a very efficient tool for the job.

  12. Das war der I Love Free Software Day

    Bereits am 12. Februar feierten wir bei der FSFE-Zürich die Maintainer freier Software. Die Besucher interessierten sich für vier Vorträge, gute Diskussionen und über eine pünktliche Pizza-Lieferung.

  16. Stamping a #PDF file (e.g. add a signature) in 2026 on #Linux seems to still be an impossible task without some weird gimmicks. (I don't mean digital signing, BTW.)

    LibreOffice Draw could work but messes up with the fonts.

    pdftk can do it but it needs the “stamping” signature file to be correctly sized and positioned —good for batch processing, bad for single files.

    Any ideas?

    EDIT: managed to achieve it with #Xournal as suggested by @tmalsburg and @ansuz in the comments.

  24. @happyborg We did it with a simple #xournal / #xournalpp drawing as we have devices with pen-support. As a drawback, you need to construct everything first and everything isn't exact, but it just works. Otherwise #scribus or #libreoffice Draw might work.
