How do I use Adobe for proofreading?

I need to edit documents for my proofreading work in PDF's. I usually use Word and track changes but the new client needs me to use Adobe. I've downloaded it but for the life of me cannot see how to alter text. I can see tabs on bottom about how to put lines thru words etc but I need to be far more detailed than that.

    Hi Kazzianne,

    If you have to edit the text within a pdf, you can check this video: Edit text and images in PDFs |

    Or if you have to annotate text for corrections: Add sticky notes and other annotations |  Let us know if that helps.

    Also, editing a PDF is not possible on mobile devices except iPad using Acrobat Reader app. However, the annotation is possible.
