A PDF editor is a software tool that allows you to make changes to a PDF document. These changes can include editing text, adding or removing images, highlighting content, filling out forms, signing documents, and more. On a Mac, the Preview program is a simple and easy-to-use option for editing PDF files. But there are also other options available, such as online and third-party PDF editors that may offer additional features and functionality depending on your specific needs.

How to Edit Text in PDF on Mac (Free Solution Included)
Preview is a program preinstalled on your Mac that can open and edit PDF files. It is about as comprehensive as any other PDF editor except that it cannot edit pre-existing text. However, it has the added advantage that you don't need to install anything extra to use it – just open the PDF file and start editing right away.
It might make sense to think that the Edit menu is what you use to find all the PDF editing tools in Preview, but that's not the case. Instead, this menu is for removing pages from the PDF file and inserting pages from other PDF files (or making blank pages).
Preview also lets you rearrange pages in the PDF by dragging them up or down from the sidebar. What this means is that you can make the second page the first page, or the last page the second, etc. If you don't see the sidebar in Preview, you can enable it from the View menu.
