Check out preview (default app) on OSX.

It handles most things you need for a pdf that you can do in reader.

Preview is my first choice but when you deal with BoringOldOrg their PDFs won’t work and I have wasted a lot of time trying. Big financial orgs, state govts, etc... I understand that this isn’t the case for many people, but for someone that has to deal with these forms all the time, the Adobe app is the most consistent.

Most things, but not everything. Preview performance with complex PDFs is, and has always been, lacking.
