Hi,
we doesn't work often with pdf and when it comes to pdf solution, my bosses thought you can simply take some text from an actual pdf and changed it for something else, like a find and replace in a text file.

I'm guessing that because you can select/find text in reader that doesn't mean you can change it.
So in fact, is it possible to do that?

Thanks

Hi!
There are pdf-editors/-writers out there ... so it's possible ;-)
With QuickPDF it's not possible. You can do something similar (overwrite wrong text wiith white color and then writing the new text with the same length) but it's no real editor.
Cheers, Ingo
