I'm looking for a secure Linux PDF Reader
Hello, I am looking for a PDF Reader that works on Linux and does not execute Javascript or other hidden executable code even if the PDF is infected. Is there such thing?

I always use dangerzone.rocks to read any suspicious PDF file.
it automates the full process and can run in a container.
It appears that Evince(Gnome's PDF reader) does not support loading additional content.

EDIT: I'd still open any suspicious PDF in a VM though.
Thank you
Does firedog execute Javascript? I honestly have no idea
