In order to edit a PDF, you have a choice between using Adobe’s programs (Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Pro DC) or a third-party PDF editor. Alternatively, a number of third-party PDF editors offer more options for altering documents, and many are free or include a free tier, too. The latest versions of Acrobat allow you to merge PDFs, delete pages and convert PDFs to practically every file format, and you can do a lot of this for free. But what if you need to make changes to a portable document? Luckily, Adobe has packed Acrobat with more advanced features over the years, including the ability to add text and images, adjust fonts, add comments, sign forms, add images and more.

If you send someone a PDF, you can be assured that they’re looking at an identical copy of what you sent - regardless of their operating system or what software they have installed. PDFs were designed to be a universal file format.
