So you want to modify the text of a PDF by hand...

If you, like me, resent every dollar spent on commercial PDF tools, you might want to know how to change the text content of a PDF without having to pay for Adobe Acrobat or another PDF tool.

They are recorded here. They are surely not universally applicable --
the PDF standard is truly Byzantine -- but they worked for my case.
