PDF editing in Gimp
I'm working with a PDF file that I import to GIMP.
The PDF file is a form I must fill out using TEXT in GIMP and then print out to
send to a company.When I fill out the PDF form I simply enter all of the text necessary to
complete the thing and then save it (as a PNG file) and print it out.How can I edit individual text I entered on the form?

create the PNG file. Having an xcf copy of the file will allow you to load
it and edit the contents of the text layers from which you can make a new
PNG file._______________________________________________

I just enter text in the pertinent areas of the form.
I don't see any text layers.

Press T and click on the image created from a PDF page. Then you'll see :)

layers. And if you saved this file as XCF, then these text layers would
still be editable using the text tool.Sven
