There are tools out there which either can convert a PDF file into
WMF (which is the standard vector format of Windows) or to a bitmap
format like JPEG. Using WMF/EMF you can make changes to the contents
in publisher on object level (=lines, circles, text objects). You could loose
some WYSIWYG quality. If you go the bitmap route you are not able
to edit the contents anymore in Publisher. But it ensures you in most
cases 100% WYSIWYG. But the quality is depending on eg resolution,
anti-aliasing etc.

Please mail me offline and I can send you more information about
how to create a WMF/EMF or image file from a PDF-file and how to import it
into Publisher.

I know I can set up a pdf from Publisher (using the printer and Primo) But
does it work the other way, like putting it back in Publisher?

Last night I needed to change something on a document that I received and
opened in Adobe Acrobat Reader. I only have the free version that can't be
edited directly. I thought if I could open it in Publisher it would be easy
to change what needed changing. I couldn't find any option to do this.

Could I put a pdf made from Publisher with Primo back into Publisher to
make changes? I tried making a picture box and browsing but the pdf files
didn't show up. I didn't think to try a text box.

I couldn't find any options that seemed like that, but doesn't mean there
aren't any.

Are there any programs that one can edit a pdf file in if not Publisher?
I also have Illustrator and several other programs but don't know them well,
or use them much.

Last night I ended up printing the pdf files that needed changing (an
address was on it incorrectly), typing the correct version and printing it
on a label and sticking it over the incorrect part. Since it was going to
be faxed this seemed acceptable (the person getting it knew it was being
done, we didn't want to wait while he corrected it and emailed it to me
again) Just seemed like there might be an easier way that doesn't involve
buying Acrobat, which I can't afford and would rarely use.

Thanks,
Carrie
