Ootje, did you use this editor that's being given away today or Foxit Reader to convert these two files? If the latter, which version did you use? I use Foxit Reader free and don't see an option to convert to .doc.

TIA.

catlover, I did use the GOTD-editor.
Just to let see some examples.
I use Foxitreader to read PDF's and sometimes to fill in some form's, that are made for that kind of action.

XP-Man, With the same success will cope and "PDF-XChange Viewer".

You select element "text", we set what colors are needed size а, what type of font and size, transparency.
Then click button "save"

All this can be done in the free version.

I have version 2.5 (Build 207.0)

XPman -- You can use Adobe Reader XI to fill in fillable .pdf forms. It will also let you add a signature if you need to.

bruce, There a lot of other PDFviewers, that can do that.
I use FoxitReader, it's smaller and faster to load.

XP-Man, Haha. I loathe PDFs myself. However, we live in a world that loves them.

I use PDF Xchange Viewer. There's a free version and one you can pay for. As much as a PDF file can be edited, it should do the job for you. I download tax forms every year - they are always in PDF format, open them with PDF XChange Viewer and fill them in.

I am always on the lookout for something that will actually remove something from a PDF file instead of just cover it up. Haven't found anything yet.

kalmly,
Not sure what the difference is between covering up and removing - don't you get -blank- either way??! The me the main thing is being able to change a pdf and save the modified version since the pdf format was intended to create non-editable files.

Dimma, But there is a serious limitation on the free version of PDF X-Change Viewer (refer to Softpedia):
In FREE mode, many menu items will be marked with a special marker that indicates that the specific feature requires a PRO license to use without producing watermarks. You can try any of the PRO features but, be very careful not to save your PDF if you don't want the watermarks to appear in the upper corners of each page of the document. Once a document is watermarked, there is no way to remove them so save a copy of the original PDF before trying the PRO features in an unlicensed Viewer.

Ootje,
When I installed FoxitReader, I lost my ability to use CutePDF.

Mike Henry, That's a pity.
Do you use CutePDF to make pdf's?
I known, that Foxitreader installs a pdf-printer.
After that, you can instruct Windows to use your own choice of printer with a right-click on your printer and activate it as standard-printer.
Maybe that will solve your problem.

Ootje,

Thanks. I did know that.

It's just that CutePDF sometimes make a better quality file, especially on webpapges.

Other then that, I loved FoxitReader. But, it was interfering so much with CutePDF, I had to uninstall it.

Do you know of a good freeware PPDF editor?

Based on the other comments here, it sounds like the one in this GOTD is not really an editor.

My main interest in editing is to delete pages or insert pages from another PDF file.

I own full-blown Acrobat V5.0, but have been unwilling to pay the high price for the newer versions. The problem is that my V5.0 won't read some of the newer PDF Files.

Mike Henry, I did use sometimes a editor, given by GOTD.
I think krypteller told me about PDFill PDF Tools (Free).
Maybe that will be sufficient.
First split and after join with another pdf.

NYB, do you know if it's because some PDFs are locked when they are created?

Does the lack of editing go for all PDFs?
If so, I will not bother downloading and installing the software.

Thanks.

Kaya77, I tried it on a PDF I created myself in another editor. Definitely not locked. I can't edit text using this one.

Not worth downloading.

NYB, You're right... Tried editing many different documents... It can't really work with existing objects - it can only insert additional ones.

Jim, thanks!
