PDF files are widely used on Mac OS X as they can be created, viewed and shared easily. But by nature, they are hard to be modified. With the built-in Preview, users can make some kind of modifications on the PDF files such as adding annotations, merging PDF pages. But it is far from enough, as it doesn't allow users modify PDF text and images. Then, AnyBizSoft PDF Editor for Mac is needed. It is an innovative PDF editing tool and it provides 2 methods for users to modify PDF files on Mac OS X: Modify PDF files directly and Modify PDF files in Ms Word.

Method 1: Modify PDF Files directly

Open a PDF file with AnyBizSoft PDF Editor for Mac. And then you can modify your PDF files now:

1 Add Text

Click Add Text button on the toolbar, type text in the pop-up box to add PDF text. You can customize the font and font color in the box. Click the OK button, the text you added is in a transparent block and is on the top left corner of the current page by default.

After adding text, now the Touchup Tool is selected by default. So just click on the text block, and drag the text to the place on the page as you like.

2 Modify PDF Text

Click the Touchup Tool button on the toolbar, and double click on the text, when the text is in an editable block and the cursor becomes I-beam pointer, you can correct, insert, or delete the text.

Also you can change the text font and color by clicking the Inspector button on the toolbar to change color for the text. Or choose Format > Fonts > Show Fonts in the top menu bar to change text font. Click here to learn more details about how to edit PDF text on Mac.

3 Insert images

To insert images in a PDF file, just choose Edit>Insert... from the top menu bar, and then select one local image to inert to the PDF file. Or click on an image in the PDF file, choose Edit>Crop Image… to crop images. Also you can resize, move, and delete the images in the PDF file.

Method 2 Modify PDF files in Ms Word

Open a PDF file with AnyBizSoft PDF Editor for Mac. Then choose File > Convert to Word in the top menu bar, you can quickly convert the current PDF file to editable Ms Word document. Then you can modify it in Ms Word.

Both the 2 methods allow you to modify PDF files on Mac OS X. In my opinion, the first method is quicker if you only need to modify a few typos on the PDF file. But if you have to make large changes to the PDF file, converting PDF to Word to modify it in Word is more time-saving. Users can choose the suitable method according to the different situation.
