How to edit and SAVE a PDF

I have adobe 6 pro and have made some editable PDFs...i fill these in and then email to my PA. She makes corrections fine but cant save those, only print.

How can she save the changes and email back to me (without spending £600 on the proper software!)

Check the security settings on the PDF when you save it and see if there are any options in relation to saving changes to the file. It could simply be that the security options are set so as to allow you to only edit and print the changes but not save the changes.

It would not surprise me if you cannot do what you want without having to get your PA to purchase the full version of Acrobat.
