I used Adobe Illustrator for the last half decade but I don't have access to that program anymore.

I use a program called Adobe PDF Converter Pro. but it doesn't let me modify pdf's per se, I use it to create a pdf from a document or create a document out of a pdf and then edit it and then convert it back to pdf. I borrowed the software from my prev employer.

You want to switch the pictures not edit them right? Um acrobat builds and modifies PDFs so why the fuck wouldn't it be able to replace images in them?

I use a program called PDFill here at work. We didn't want to fork over the cash for another Acrobat license so we bought this. It is only like 20bucks and works fine.

I haven't had much experience putting images into it, but I'm sure it works alright.

Here at work we have multiple Forms that have to get filled out while doing online interviews...etc
So making these into fillable pdf's make it really easy to fill out.

Foxit has a editor and there is a 6 month trial. You could try that.

LEL, it has come a long way in functionality and compatibility though.

The only reason I use Acrobat is because I got it for free from my dad a few years ago. It is an old version and I don't do enough PDF editing to spend money on a new version or worry about the alts out there.

Yeah, it's really a shame Spider won't use anything that doesn't say MS on it. He doesn't know what he's missing.

I'm stuck forever at Acrobat 6 because upgrading would make my Writer/Distiller not work. And I'm okay with that.

My iPhone doesn't say MS on it. :fyi:

I'm sure there is an app for that.


This PC does not say MS on it. It says Dell.

Haven't you been paying attention to those Mac ads? Anything that's not a Mac is a PC, therefor, that Dell is a piece of shit and should be thrown out the nearest window.
