Can you edit .pdf's with Adobe Reader?

[Nacho]

if not - how? it won't let me change the extension to a .doc and my Preview application won't allow text modifications. Will TextEdit do?

PDF's are made so that you can't edit the text. You could go to the trouble of photoshopping of course, but thats a biatch.

i copied and pasted into a word .doc but lost all formatting.

all this for an amazing race application.

You can edit the text with Acrobat. It's not expensive and worth it. Of course if the file is encrypted or security locked, you will not be able to edit.

But most PDF applications are not.
