>>I have a PDF, I need to go into it and change some text,
Adobe Illustrator is the tool of choice. It can edit anything in a PDF
file, far beyond what Acrobat Pro can do. If you don't have it, I'd
type the text you want and save it as a text file. Then I'd find
someone who does desktop publishing and see if they have Adobe
Illustrator. Get them (pay?) to open the file, paste your text, then
save the file. Should take 1-2 minutes, thus affordable.
But I must ask - why can't you go to the application that was used to
create the PDF and edit that, and re-export the PDF?
