Need help with editing PDF files

 

Hi Laurel Shifflett,

 

Follow the instructions below to edit your PDF files using Oracle PDF Import Extension

 

• Install Oracle PDF Import Extension
• Open OpenOffice Draw.
• Now, browse the PDF file you want to edit
• You can edit any text field by double clicking the text and if you want to add new text, click the Text link at the bottom of the window and click the cursor where you want to add the new text.
• After finishing all the editing, click the PDF link and export the file as PDF.

 

It has so many limitations as it can't deal with forms, converting tables etc.

 

If you are using Windows, there is an alternative

 

PDFill

 

You can download it from here. It offers so many features than Oracle PDF Import Extension and is a paid application.

Hope it helps.
