Portable Document Format (PDF) is a common format for sharing final versions of files.
To add or edit text in a PDF that was made in an Office program like Excel or Publisher, start with the original Office file. Open that file in your Office program, make your changes, and then save the file in PDF format again.
Or use a third-party PDF converter tool to import your PDF into an Office file format, make your changes, and then save the file in PDF format again. You can purchase a PDF converter through the Office Store.
You can also use Adobe Acrobat. For more information, see Adobe Acrobat.

To do so, open your PDF file in Adobe Acrobat, then click on the Edit PDF tool in the toolbar on the right. When you're in form editing mode, you can make several types of changes to the PDF file. You can edit text, alter a field name, or add new text and fillable fields. You can also choose different fonts.
Open a PDF document in Acrobat. Click the “Fill & Sign” tool in the right pane. Fill out your form: Complete form filling by clicking a text field and typing or adding a text box. You can add checkmarks and fill in radio buttons too.
Log in to your Google account and open Google Drive. Upload the PDF file that you would like to edit. Right-click on the document and select "Open With" and then "Google Docs". Your PDF will now be converted to a DOCX file so you can make changes if necessary.
EaseUS is a free PDF editor that offers options to read, create, edit and convert PDFs both in program and online. The streamlined interface allows you to edit or convert with ease for any formats like doc, excel, ppt, jpg, png or epub, even merge, split, compress, watermark e-sign or OCR PDF files.
PDF files created in Adobe have permission settings. These are set by the file administrators, roles assigned by the original creator of the file. The permission settings are “read-only”, “edit”, and “password-protected”.
If you go to the document properties of a PDF file (control or command d), if the proper metadata is available, it will list the creation date and time and modified date and time. This can help you determine if a pdf file has been modified since creation.
