I found a nice mailing list:
http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=9197&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a
and they were saying no free PDF editor in linux except the Adobe
Acrobat. ($500) . But someone said that we can use PDFEdit free in linux?
I looked and yumex cannot find it. I will google.

I tried to use OpenOffice-writer (command oowriter) but it does not open pdf

I'm a Gnome user as well. It in no way impacts my ability to install
and use other programs. Even ones whos name starts with a k.

Complete!
I just 'opened' a PDF in KWord, and KWord appears to import it into a
new KWord doc. I'm not a fan of KWord, and it makes a mess out of the
document during the import, but it does work, and perhaps a little
better than just copying and pasting from evince. It makes a mess out
of whitespace and tables, but it works better than I thought it would.
That was all on Fedora Rawhide though. I checked on a SL 4.7
machine, and it didn't have koffice in the repos. I didn't see it in
Centos 5.2's either, although I'm sure someone's made a package of it
for both, somewhere on the net.
