Is there any way to convert .pdf file to any editable text format?
(Or just to edit .pdf?) |

I've not used them, but there are a number of apps out there. I've seen one that allows conversion from pdf to html and I think there is one to go to ascii.
As an alternative, which I could not make work there I believe there is one to edit the pdf directly, or perhaps a ps file. You'll have to check on this.
