Editing text

You can add or replace text only if the font used for that text is installed on your system, you are the author of the PDF, and no security setting will prevent editing. If the font isn’t installed on your system but is embedded or subsetted in the PDF, you can make changes only to color, word spacing, character spacing, baseline offset, or font size.

Choose Tools > Advanced Editing > TouchUp Text Tool, or select the TouchUp Text tool in the Advanced Editing toolbar.

I would like a more complete answer from Eugene.

I am using Acrobat Standard 8.1.1 and I am having this same problem.

Is there a software available that would edit the text in a PDF document with embedded fonts...made by another author?
