Thank-you, Fred.
I tried "man evince". I got nothing like what's in your post.

That was enough to look it up. It is available for windows-7 (but not
Linux); it is free; but patching/updating is not user-controllable. I
don't know if it allows the user to fill in dorm

I need something, preferably from one of the usual repos (so I can
easily install it with dnf), that I can use to fill in a pdf form. I
can view the form just fine, but nothing seems to have functionality for
me to fill it in. I did not see anything in "dnfdragora".
