Adobe Acrobat is hardly a replacement for Word or OpenOffice as a
document editor though, as I remember. It can be used to create tags and
re-order pages etc., but it's ability to significantly change content is
limited.

I think people are confusing creating and editing. Of course, PDFs can
be created, but once created I do not believe the content is meant to be
easily changed.

Tony.
