This pretty much depends on the document. We are marking certain documents read only because either they contain features that are not supported by PDFedit (e.g. encrypted documents) or the document itself is not good for editing (e.g. linearized document). If you are having the linearized document (which you can see in the Revision selection tool) then you can delinearize document edit the delinearized one. -- Michal Hocko ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
