Just to be clear ,what happens is that Nisus Writer Pro opens the PDF
document and automatically renders it into rtf assuming there is text
encoded into the PDF and it is not graphics based. This means that as
far as I am aware the vast majority of formatting options in the
originating pdf document is carried across. Then Nisus will save any
editing to rtf format but when you are finished editing you go to the
file menu and select save to pdf which reverts the document into PDF
format again for you.
I have not tried it with any forms. I am happy to test this out if
somebody can send one to [email protected] for me to test out.
Nisus is not great with tables the last time I tried so it may be a problem.

Editing PDF files is very interesting to me just as a hobby. I've
always been curious how PDF files are edited. I tried so called PDF
editors for both Windows and Mac. They both present them in
inaccessible ways so no editing is possible. Hope this Nisus Writer
Pro changes things. I can still use it as a general Word Processor
though and will watch out for when it's on offer for now.

I believe that Nisus Writer Pro is available from Mac-update and also
the App Store.
From memory it cost about £40 when I bought it but it appears on
offer regularly as part of bundles from MacUpdate.
To be clear Nisus Writer Pro is a fully fledged Word Processor and
some believe it it the best available for the mac. It unlikely that
anybody would buy Nisus just for reading PDF documents but I thought
I would mention it in case people already have it and do not realise
that it it can also be used to read and edit PDF files.

Hi,
thanks for your response. I am asking because I want the choice.
Where did you get this program and how much was it?

Personally I have junked Preview in favour of reading PDF with
Nisus Writer Pro. This appears to read fine to me so far and of
course has the advantage of making the PDF editable.
I realise this is not a free option but worth considering if you
happen to have Nisus already.

Preview has a lot of limitations especially for college students
with advance PDF files. I could never get preview to do anything I
want such as doing searches for phrases, not to mention there is
way to create bookmarks or anything. Completely useless for
academic articles.
