I need some help from those of you who have access to edit PDF documents. DH and I will be participating in Walk Now for Autism Speaks in May, and we'll be hosting a Light It Up Blue party on April 1st as a fundraiser. I had created an invitation last year for our party, and would like to avoid re-creating it.

The problem is I only have the PDF I saved, not the original PowerPoint I did the invitation in. The only thing I would need to change is the date to Sunday and the time to 1:00 PM. PDFEscape.com doesn't have the font options that would make it anything similar.

If any of you could help, I'd be ever so grateful!

Hi Noora,

Actually, it appears as though everything is in the pdf as an image...not text. I am not able to edit anything in text edit mode. And no fonts show up in properties.

Let me try a trick though and see if I can get it to work.
 
OK, got it, I think. Had the font so I was able to construct something. It's not perfect, but hopefully this will work for you.
