This is my experience as well and it does help with self publishing. To make significant changes you need an editable file. Nancy

It is not designed for that. You have to open it with a designated program, like PDF Reader or Adobe. Most webbrowser, like Google Chrome, are able to open PDF files. In OpenOffice you can Export to PDF. Probably you have made a document in AOO's .odt format. Saved that and Exported it to PDF. To work on the PDF you have to open the .odt-document and make your changes there. Then Export to PDF again.
