With respect - this is an irrelevant recommendation. People edit PDFs exactly
because they don't have access to the source files with which they were
generated; or because they want to be certain they begin editing in the
absolute final typeset form of a document.
PDFs are pretty editable. There are PDF editors, which work. Inkscape works.
Adobe Acrobat (the full suite) works. They may work in the somewhat handicapped
fashion I described above (not sure about the full Acrobat) - but they are
quite useful. But I want LibreOffice draw functionality for these PDFs! and
when this bug is fixed I can have it. Mostly.
