Hi David,
it's actually quite simple if you get familiar with Draw, it simply treats
blocks of text in the PDF as a section or a text box.
If you have the PDFimport extension installed just open OOo and go
file>open>foo.pdf. Use the standard Draw tools from there.
Click on a line of text reveals the text box, double clicking puts your
cursor in the text box and ready to edit.

Your response is both kind and thorough. I'll spend some
time playing with Draw. One of the many things I want to do
is to put finger numbers on music for the bass. That's
fairly straightforward in Paint.net, but not easy in any pdf
editor I have access to. I hope it can be done in Draw.
