To create one from a LibreOffice (this is an OpenOffice mail list but you

can later be edited in LibreOffice the option "Hybrid PDF (embed ODF file)"
MUST be selected when creating the PDF from the LibreOffice document.

If and only if this step is taken the pdf can be edited within LibreOffice
provided other features are also available. Per LibreOffice help...
https://help.libreoffice.org/6.2/en-US/text/shared/01/ref_pdf_export.html?DbPAR=SHARED
this embeds the ODF inside the PDF.

The PDF can then be opened and edit in LibreOffice just as if it was an ODT
file.



In OpenOffice it works when you install the PDF Import Extension 
.





So yes, LibreOffice can edit PDF but it must be a particular type of PDF.

Hello Norma,

#1 Is apache open office able to convert .docx files to .doc files? Yes.
Open the .docx file and save as .doc file.
NOTE: Formatting, e.g. margins, tables, and others, is not always

perfectly

converted when the .docx file is opened and the same may be seen in the
saved .doc file.

#2 Can apache open office convert .pdf files to .doc file?
Not so far as I know.

For #1, I .docx files can always be read using Word online by creating a
free outlook.com account. No worries about converting the file. Also,

.docx

files can have features that don't translate to the .doc format. Keeping
the file in .docx format is the way to be certain no features of the
document are lost.

For #2, there are free converters online. Microsoft Office will open

.pdfs

but there are limitations with what it will do. Check here for more info
