Marking text to be deleted with strikethrough and using notes to indicate text to be added are forms of annotation and are included in Acrobat's "commenting" capability. All forms of annotation/comment are added in an overlay layer that is separate from the text of the document itself.
"Editing text" in Adobe's terminology means adding and deleting glyphs in the PDF itself, and is *not* part of the annotating or commenting capabilities. This level of editing has some significant limitations, one being that most versions of the Adobe PDF tools (generation XI might be the sole exception--I don't know for sure because I'm still using X) require you to have the specific fonts used in the document installed on your system before allowing you to edit the text layer of the PDF. -Fred Ridder From: tamm...@spectrumwritingllc.com To: framers@lists.frameusers.com Subject: Saving a PDF so that it can be edited in Adobe Reader Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2014 11:07:58 -0700 Saving a PDF so that it can be edited in Adobe Reader FM 10.x. all patched and current and Adobe Acrobat Pro X, all patched and current I create my book in Framemaker, print the book to a .ps file and then manually distill it into a PDF. I open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat Pro and save the PDF as Reader Extended > Enable Commenting and Measuring. I want my editors to be able to not only add comments, but also edit text - strike through it, note insertions, etc. Using Acrobat Reader XI, will my users be able to do this based on the option that I am using for the Reader Extended PDF or only commenting an option? What can I do to make the PDF editable in terms of striking out text, etc?
