Here's how to a edit PDF document using Foxit PDF Editor:

1. Open the document.
2. Click on the 'Edit Text' button near the top-center of the screen.
3. To change text, simply locate it and click to highlight it, then type your new text.
4. To delete it, just select text and then hit backspace. Or type the new text directly over the highlighted text.

That's it.

But wait, there's more!

Want to make sure text flows properly between pages and paragraphs? Just use the Link & Join Text feature.

1. Choose EDIT > Edit Content > Add Images tool  > New Image Object . The Add New Image dialog box pops up.
