Some of those PDF Editors are good, but creates large files
compared to Adobe.
I have Adobe Pro 6 installed, but I also have 7 and 8.
I like Adobe Acrobat Professional 6 over the the other
versions.
But, . . . . . . .
cost is the thing for all of us. Just make sure you get the
best of the free or low cost editors.
I look into them every so often, just to see how good
they are getting. AND they are getting better and
better. That is why version 8 is now over 1 gig installed
and can do more than just create and edit PDFs.
Adobe Acrobat is getting even more bloted than MS Word
and other stuff like that.
Good luck with your search.

That's not correct. Adobes is the most complete solution but various
third party PDF editors do exist:

expensive Acrobat, the install of which can be fraught with problems.
In comparison to using Word and Adobe's Distiller (part of Acrobat),
the generation of the PDF file in OOo is an order of magnitude faster
and does convert links (URLs). Very impressive.
There does not seem to be anyway, though, in OOo to parameterize the
PDF generation e.g., include links or notes, etc.).
