Gary from MacMost.com explains how to edit a PDF on your Mac using Preview. Despite popular belief, you cannot directly edit a PDF in Preview. Instead, you must edit the source document and make changes from there. In Preview, you can highlight, annotate, export, and rearrange pages but cannot directly edit the content of the PDF. Some editing functions fall under the category of Markup. Join MacMost's Patreon campaign for exclusive content and course discounts.
