Re: Editing PDFs

[Melissa Morgan <mmorgan -at- INTREPID -dot- CDG-HARGRAY -dot- COM>]

I'm investigating a tool right now for
editing PDFs. It's a plug-in for Acrobat
Exchange called PitStop by Enfocus.
So far it looks like it has some decent
graphic editing tools, but I'm not sure
about the text editing capabilities.

Supposedly you can cut, copy, and
paste freely, but I've yet to figure out
how to do this for more than one line
at a time. When I finish my evaluation,
I'd be happy to send you the results
(and to anyone else who's interested).
I really think we have a long way to go
as far as PDF editors go. They all seem
to only let you do a page-by-page, line-
by-line type editing, which would be
great if you distilled a huge file, then
found you had one misspelling or faulty
application of style. However, if you
need to edit the end of one page, and
the beginning of the next there's
nothing to flow the text to the next page
(at least that I've found). Boy wouldn't
that be nice?

Anyway, let me know if any of you want
more info, or you can download your own
copy to evaluate at www.enfocus.com.

Cheers!
