There is a PDF editor in the Ubuntu repositories call Pfedit, have
you tried it? I loaded it but have had a chance to get familiar with
it. I can open a PDF file, but then I didn't try to make changes or
anything yet.

Are you referring to FoxIt?????????

Open Office does have a PDF extension. That does allow you to edit PDF files.
You'll have to install it.
....services.openoffice.org/.../Pdf_Import_Extension

But it's LibreOffice now.............

No, OpenOffice.org is still OpenOffice.org but since it was taken over
by Oracle a bunch of the developers have started the LibreOffice fork
(due to political differences) and a number of the major distros have
decided to support them by switching to LibreOffice as the default
productivity suite.

At the moment, the two are still compatible and extensions produced for
one should run on the other, but this situation is very likely to change
over time.

No, it is called pdfedit, I got it from the repositories. I have tried Foxit
and didn't care
for it, and it added some extras I didn't ask for too.

Installing that bad boy right now!

.pdf is the most intelligent file format that I know, from my sad and bitter
experience. Standard text files are OK, .html is quite OK if you do not have
pictures, .docx is a moron and a source of curses from lovely, beautiful
colleagues who send you to the origins for not saving correctly, .doc is
something that we deal with every day, a well-known parasite and an excusable
stereotype. .odt is quite clearly as stupid as the former two but it is a good
altenative to M$ de facto monopoly. A necessary evil in the European jungle. I
warmly recommend .pdf or standard text.

Each PDF file encapsulates a complete description of a fixed-layout flat document, including the text, fonts, graphics, and other information needed to display it. You may use the PDF editor to get customized effect.
