Trouble Understanding Adobe's Editing Tools

I'm having trouble figuring out the difference in what is offered between Document Cloud PDF services and Adobe Acrobat. I need an easy editing tool for my business @ www.JessiRitaHoffman.com -- in particular, a tool for editing client manuscripts. (I'm a book editor.) I want to see how Adobe compares with the tools available in Word but am unclear which application has the editing feature I would need. I'm told the Adobe editing tools are harder to use than Word's "track changes" feature. Anyone have experience with this?

    Thanks for your reply. The first article in the list of articles you sent

    me to says that if you don't have the original document to edit, you should

    edit the doc in Word, then convert it to a PDF. If that's the case (as it

    usually is for me), what app do I need to turn an edited Word doc into an

    edited Adobe doc? The article doesn't explain that, nor do the other

    articles on the list, so far as I can tell.

    Hey,

    You would require Acrobat application in order to edit the PDF files Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat Pro DC.
