New user help (editing pdf docs)

2006-07-22 12:32:20 by Richard

Hi all,

I have started to use PDFCreator to make pdf docs direct from webpages & this is a good facility.

I would like to edit text in the pdf docs I have produced
(type in new text to alter & edit the content etc).So far I can only see the ability to cut & paste text around the document.Can I use PDF Creator as a fully functional pdf editor? If so how (are there help files etc).If not is there another Opensource product that can do this?
(I have the Adobe reader software also & of course the full Adobe product is I believe capable of this but is also
commercial expensive software to buy & not freeware).

I am grateful for advice on this, thanks,

Richard

I am looking into using the Gimp to open / edit pdf docs and then using pdfcreator to print the edits back to pdf.

Having a few issues & unsure how this will scale to large files, but so far it looks promising.
