Mar 21, 2019 at 21:58 comment added Scott @my-lord Acrobat is an editor for "touch ups" - change a word here or there, alter a color, swap an image etc. It's never been meant as a full fledged layout editor. Acrobat is first and foremost a tool for output and distribution - that is where it is "industry standard". Editing is secondary. Ideally you would have any "book" in a native application such as InDesign or QuarkXpress. You would use that application to make layout alterations and then regenerate a PDF for output and distribution.
Mar 21, 2019 at 19:45 comment added my-lord Thank you. But if it is not a text editing program why it is called a PDF editing program? I want to edit the text and expand the content of the book. I have tried to convert it to the word and HTML file and it lost a lot of content. Also, I cannot open PDF files with Adobe InDesign.(I am wondering how that static primitive uneditable format become industry standard.)
