    Editing a PDF is not easy as it sounds to be. You must have a PDF editing Software in advance, but mostly of them are quite expensive. Take Adobe Acrobat Professional for example, it charges more than $400 which may exceed your budget. I am a medical consultant and I regularly needs to edit/format my PDF documents and fillable forms to email my patients.
    I uses a Fiverr professional called ChinEtti to do all my PDF Edits for $5. Yes, just for $5 bucks! He is so professional and literally can do any PDF editing job. ChinEtti deliver fast with very high quality. I am extremely happy with his work up-to now and would recommend him to anyone who needs a professional PDF editing job done fast.
