Trying to edit a reduced pdf document in Acrobat 8, no luck.

[KeweenawCoop]

Hello everyone, thanks for looking at my discussion. So, I've taken a pdf document that was compatible with Adobe Acrobat DC and reduced the pdf file to be compatible with Adobe Acrobat 8. Now that I've opened the pdf file in 8, I can't seem to edit any of the text like I was able to do in DC. Am I missing a step in the process, is there an option or setting I'm not correctly doing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

A lot was improved in the years since version 8.
