[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1946670, member: 190607"] Preview (part of the Mac OS), can easily do this. Preview is a ridiculously useful app, that is often overlooked because it's abilities aren't evident on the surface. You can find Preview in your Applications folder. You can't use it to erase existing text and replace that text, but you can use it to insert new text, in any font, any color, any size, anywhere in the document where there is space, anywhere on the page. Here's how: - Open your new PDF in Preview - Click on the Markup button in Preview's toolbar - Click on the Text button in the Markup toolbar.
