Stop right there. PDF is not a format for editing. Ask the original source that was used to create the PDF, change that source, create a new PDF. If the PDF is a tagged PDF, you could convert the PDF to XML, change the XML and then create a new PDF from that XML as is done in the second edition of the book (chapter 15, the Moby Dick example), but this is a dead end too: the XML doesn't know anything about the style of the content. If what you're asking for were possible, there would already be a product for it. Do you know of any Adobe product that can do this? If not, don't bother to start coding. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.
