How to create an Editable PDF with Adobe Reader


Create an EDITABLE PDF with Adobe Reader

Want to create an EDITABLE PDF using the FREE Adobe Reader program?
I created this Adobe Reader file for instructors so they could create editable and savable assignments for online courses: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/44/PDF_Assignment_Builder1.pdf.
Watch this video to see how to use it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ork2LxbVwV8.
Or follow these steps:
1. Open the file in Adobe Reader.
2. Click on the text field and paste text from any word processor or text editor into the text field--or just start typing.
3. Click anywhere outside the text field. The file will dynamically generate the pages needed to hold your content.
4. Save a renamed copy.
You now have a file that anyone can open in Adobe Reader, add new text to and/or edit the existing text, and save the changes when they are done.
