Subject: [CASL-L] PDF Conversion solutions

Of the following, I tried #2, which works best with text heavy rather than graphics heavy PDF.  The teacher tried the first suggestion in #1 (Sejda PDF Editor), which he said was going along fine, but then I was rescued by a fellow librarian with Acrobat (who shall remain nameless so she doesn’t get flooded with requests) who just converted it.

Per request:

Potential ways to edit a PDF:
(keep in mind I’m mainly cutting and pasting other people’s suggestions.)


1.  https://www.lifewire.com/best-free-pdf-editors-4147622



2. If it is uploaded to your Google Drive you can right click on it and open with Google Docs, but you will lose all the formatting.



3. There are few google add-ons that let you annotate, white out sections, etc.  I've used doc hub and kaienza with luck.



4. We use Doc Hub at Brookfield High School. The free version does what we need and integrates well with Google Drive.



5. xodo extensions works well



6. Use PDF filler. It's a Google extension.

7. Kami or Diigo extensions?
