Gary from MacMost.com explains that you cannot directly edit a PDF on your Mac using Preview. Instead, you can only annotate, highlight, export, and rearrange pages. The key is to edit the source document and then save it as a new PDF. This process involves using Markup tools and not editing the actual content of the PDF document.
