Best App to Edit PDFs?

[HappyDude20]

I have a PDF file of a resume and no longer have the Pages version of said document and am wanting to update it a bit.

I heard Readdle's PDF Expert App is great, but $80 is kinda steep.

There either must be worthy alternatives out there or perhaps an Apple Preview App feature I may be missing.

Thanks!

If you fancy trying out LibreOffice, it'll edit your .pdf files very well and for free.
It'll open just about anything
If you are interested in purchasing a really good image-editing program, Affinity Photo does an excellent job of editing .pdf files and it has OCR.
Spending money on Affinity would be more useful to you than something that just edits .pdf
I've used both of them for this job.

I'd recommend trying to just copy the text out of Preview into Word or Pages or whatever & then editing it there. Many times you get most of the formatting intact & it's a lot easier to edit text/formatting etc in a word processor than it is in a PDF application (even Adobe Acrobat isn't that easy).

Copy/pasting works pretty well in most cases & it will probably take less time to reformat the areas that didn't copy over correctly than it will to edit everything in a PDF tool.

You may be right about that. Im using the PDF Expert trial so we'll see how that goes. Pages has definitely always been a strong suitor.
