If you think of PDF as paper that hasn't taken a physical form yet, that
helps.
It's not really designed or intended to be a format for editing,
but instead is a wrapper for distributing things to be printed.
Nearly anything can be put into that wrapper, not just text.
The question does make me wonder if there isn't a need for something,
maybe a typesetting format, in between PDF (an end format) and
OpenDocument (an editing format).

Good morning,
New user of OpenOffice here and I am trying to figure out if I can edit .pdf
documents using OpenOffice. I have been through the Knowledge Base, Help
Files, and whatever else I could find that may contain help or this topic,
but have struck out so far. I have several documents in .pdf that I need to
edit, and so far have been unable to do it.
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
