You CAN edit that PDF easily
 I don't know about you but I can't stand it when I am sent a PDF that has fields that need to be filed out and is not editable. Well Adobe has a very simple solution to the problem.

Ok, so maybe this seems obvious but it is very true that one of the best things about the web these days is still Facebook. Not only do you get to connect to family and friends anywhere in the world for free, you get to share photos, videos, party invitations and even start a social revolution.
