Kevin, you have fast become my go-to when looking for ways to simplify technology. I highly appreciate your clarity, your details, and the way you speak with intention. You step us through a process simply. Thank you so much!

I've found that your solutions for the Tech problems have been too good for an occasional user like me. Thumbs up. your videos have been straight without non-sense stuff.

Just a heads up to everyone, one should be cautious uploading pdfs to an online editor, especially when these are banking docs or other docs that have your personal info. We do not know how your data will be safeguarded by the online companies.

On behalf of all educators, Thank you!

I have been using Libre Office for many years, I didn't realize that DRAW can edit PDF. Thanks to your advice I tried it and it worked perfectly. Excellent tutorial Thank you.

I did not know the free pdf version could be opened by Word and then converted into a Word document. Thanks so much for the enlightenment!

[michelaser]

Thank you, this is how every instructional video must be; it is brief, well explained, with no background music or adds etc. I will definitely subscribe

Geez, has Word been able to do this all this time, boy did I miss the boat on this one.

[freethinker]

This is exactly what I needed. Simple and powerful free editor without even installing a software much thanks!

I’m recently reviving my YouTube channel and came across to my delight some PDF files that I can easily turn into monetize ABLE content unfortunately there were some items in the file that I definitely wanted deleting. I was biting my nails wondering if some free apps existed that would do this that I ran across, your page you have so many fans so this is just another drop in the bucket for you, but it really really was a lifesaver for me. Thank you. You just gained a new subscriber as well.

This whole time I have been using adobe illustrator to solve this issue. Now I can say goodbye to that method and say hello to the Kevin Solution. Thanks for the awesome tutorial Kevin :)

Hi Kevin! Thank you for your expertise and all your videos. As a teacher, I'm learning so much so fast and you are keeping me sane. Videos that would help my world are how to make a fillable form and how did you make that signature. Thanks so much and I'm spreading the word about you to all my colleagues.

THIS TUTORIAL WAS SO GOOD I DIDN'T EVEN WATCH BEYOND 2:01 AND I WAS ABLE TO EDIT MY DOCUMENT SUCCESSFULLY AND SOLVED THE PROBLEM I'VE BEEN HAVING. Thank you!

(I was trying to edit a lease that already has an electronic signature on it, instead of their first name, what was on the document read as (insert first name) and they had already signed the document through HelloSign. I just dragged the signed PDF file into MS word and the rest is history. Thank you, again.)

LibreOffice is quite a mature and very capable product. It works so well on Mac products. I recently installed version 7 as I start 2021 and don’t expect any concerns. There is a huge variety of tools in settings so the program can be ‘dressed’ to suit a look and your working style.

[alizarinblue]

Kevin, you're a godsend! This is so timely, and so exhaustive. The four point criteria is perfect. Thank you so much!

[TheWid]

Didn’t know about using libre office draw for this! That will be really really useful. Thanks Kevin

[hime]

Sir, you are fantastic. You saved me from having to download another app that I would simply only use one time to edit a PDF for free.

[drensindrensin]

Amazing video, amazing easy to follow instructions along with several options to suit your needs. I went for the Sejda option which is perfect for me because I don’t have office and I only had 1 document to edit.

Without your recommendation I would have been too scared to try a third party editor for fear of scammers.

You have made my day!

Thank you so much

Thanks, Kevin! You saved my life. Great job on the YT channel. After watching all of your videos, I have been inspired to set up my own YouTube channel as well. Keep up the good work
