Subject: Re: editing pdfs
Hi guys,

let start with you can not, let me repeat again, can not open a pdf file,
with writer or word or any other application that it is not pdf reader(
windows case, adobe acrobat pro, which have the ability to write on the pdf,
plus a designer to edit the same pdf.) writer or word or any text editor,
they try to decode the pdf, and you will see a xml form, that the print out
that you have in your email,
now let get to the solutions that i did use and work.

option I
the thing that you do is very simple, do a google search, "pdf converter to
word" there some of them free online, and then download the word file, and
open with OO.Write,do whatever you need and save it as a pdf. that is the
simple work around with Linux. remember OO.Write open any *.doc file without
issues.

option II - if you have debian or ubuntu or your distro command

sudo apt-get install pdfedit


it is not like acrobat pro, but help a lot
still is not perfect but you may solve your problem.'

option III get acrobat pro. and for that you need windows, sorry about that.

good luck

Walter
