Anything that can do this?

Edit, yet still keep as a PDF? Maybe something that converts to an editable format and back again?
 
hmmmm, what kind of "format" is it? I.e. just words? does it have tables? pictures?

If its just words, I simply copy and paste into "word" document lol

I have some linux tools which can edit PDF's to a certain degree.
 
Try this they convert PDF to word for you. PRIMO. Then you can convert back to PDF with a free converter.

What you're REALLY looking for is Adobe Acrobat Professional.

I believe you can download it and make use of it for a trial period, after which it needs to be activated (paid for).

The trial period could be sufficient for your use...
 
Problem with converting to Word and back, is that the quality deteriorates - especially logo's. I need it to look quite original :/

It's 5 characters as well ... so not worth buying software.
 
Not as different though ;)

Like a MR AF DOLBY ro a MR G DOLBY
 
Maybe one of you with the software will be so kind as to do it for me? :)

PM me if you can ... thanks!
 
Anyone able to assist? Anyone have fancy PDF editing software?

I really need assistance :( Been struggling for a day now ....
 
just google for "free pdf extractor"

and then "free pdf creator"

easy
 
If you extract to Word, edit and convert back - it looks edited. Vector graphics loses clarity, column margins are incorrect and spacing is off. It looks edited.

I've tried every free idea in the thread - and I wasn't going to pay for a single character change.

I have passed it to a forum member to see if they can do it for me though :)

export to IMAGE, not to word - edit, and use that free "Image to pdf" wizzard that Gdiza recommended not 2 days ago in a thread of his.
 
Acrobat Professional won't actually let you do the editing, but it will let you export the file as a picture or doc that can be edited. You will have to use another program for the editing, then re-import the files as a new PDF.
 
Well, what is it that needs editing? Are you trying to add text in? Remove text? Edit diagrams/graphs/tables?

Guess I was wrong.. I thought that for a standard developed by Adobe and owned by them for significant period of time, they would at least have the tools to allow editing of documents based on the standard...

Are you sure about this? Coz I remember fiddling around with Adobe Acrobat Pro about 4 or 5 years ago, and for some reason I remember editing documents... ??

Might just be old age catching up with me...
