Which version do you use? Try to run following and you will get the
exact thing:
pdfedit --version

With the same document?

There are besically two reasons why a document is not editable:
- file permissions
- non-editable file
The first group should be pretty much obvious. The second one contains
documents which have a special formatting (e.g. linearized documents) or
features (e.g. encrypted documents) which PDFedit cannot deal with and
it is not able to produce a reasonable/valid PDF after changes.
