Edit (verb): "to make changes to a text or film , deciding what will be removed and what will be kept in, in order to prepare it for being printed or shown" - Cambridge Dictionary.
We're evaluating different PDF editors and someone mentioned that Firefox can edit PDF's. No it can't.
It can:
- Add text
- Add images
- Draw (eg. a signature)
- Highlight
It can also change display settings like orientation etc.
These are functions I would class as "Add to PDF's".
What it can't do:
- EDIT A PDF!
A true PDF editor should be able to edit existing text, remove or replace existing text. Remove existing graphic elements, and at least all of the "Add to" features listed above.
Try again Mozilla!
