I've never figured out how to use Pdfedit. I do know that in a lot of
PDFs the text has been converted to paths; i.e., it has been turned
into vector images. If the text has been converted to paths there is no
longer any text.

If all you want to do is add text to a PDF I recommend Xournal. It's
much simpler and does a great job. But bear in mind that Xournal can
only add things to a PDF; it cannot edit the underlying PDF.
