How can I make an editable pdf file from Indesign?

Aug 30, 2012 7:07 AM

I have created a Indesign dealer catalog for my company and exported it into a interactive PDF for the Engineers to use when helping a customer with ordering. Now they would like to be able to edit the PDF with notes whenever they want. How can they do this?

    PDFs are not designed to be editable. Your engineers can make comments using Adobe Reader without any extra steps provided they use the highlight and sticky note comments. If you want them to have access to the full range of comment markup you will need to use Acrobat to apply extended rights to the file.

    Do you have a full version of Acrobat, or only reader?

    Acrobat Pro has some text editing ability. I think Acrobat XI can even reflow the text as you edit.
