i would be interested in this too. someone told me you could edit pdf's in koffice, but i dont know the usefulness of this, because i dont have koffice, or the patience to take care of all the dependancy problems it brings up in suse when you dont have all the system CDs

Hm, it's usefulness is maybe getting a OpenOffice or RTF file that you can edit further in your text-editor.

Another way is using pdftotext (via CLI or ghostview) that gives you plain text from your PDF file.

I am also looking for pdf2doc converter - or PDF filter for OpenOffice. One tip: you can use pdftohtml to create a html document including the images in the pdf. Then open it in your editor and make the desired changes. Then you can save it as .odt, .doc, .rtf or whatever format you wish.
