Hi John, Thanks for the suggestion John, indeed reading on it I is a powerful application which will do what I need and much, much more, and this is reflected by its price. Unfortunately it would not be worth me spending the $190.00 for a one-off use, and sadly its PDFpen 10 it also quite expensive at $119.99. I have no doubt that for the serious user they are worth the expense though.
I am experimenting with Preview at the moment and will see if this can do the trick. Another venue would be to hire Adobe’s PDF-editing application for one month, do the job and leave it at that!
