Have you ever run into these PDF editing frustrations?

- Realized last-minute edits were needed, but couldn't make changes in time
- Only had a PDF version of the file, with no access to the original Word or PPT
- Needed to edit a PDF on the go, but didn’t have the right tool
- Had to revise an important document for a manager or client, but didn’t know how
