Help Editing a PDF

[Darthshearer]

Ive got a PDF thats got some formatting I want to keep.

Now you can saveas a word document or HTML or I can get a CSV version of the file but it loses lots of its formatting. Is there a way of doing it without losing the formatting?

By formatting I mean some of the setting out and font styles etc. I have a full version of Adobe Acrobat at my disposals yet I cant seem to do it

Its ok Ive found out how, via this

You can easily tweak the text in Acrobat using the TouchUp Text tool, hidden in the Advanced Editing toolbar. Choose Tools > Advanced Editing > Show Advanced Editing Toolbar. You can click the pull-down arrow to the right of the displayed TouchUp tool to open the TouchUp toolbar if you like.

I thought the idea of a PDF is that once it is created you can't alter the file?

 

[Darthshearer]

Aye I think thats the idea, you can though.

Ive found Adobe Illistrator you can align objects.

i use Nitro PDF pro, can use the demo version to do basic PDF editing (it does it via textboxes), just click edit, create the boxes you need (or get rid of the text you need to) and off you go

IRC you can edit PDFs if you don't protect them.
