edit an imported pdf

[Mark Johnson]

Hello! I have a map that is a line drawing. I only have a pdf copy of it. I would like to import it and then edit it. Is this possible in Affinity? Essentially, I want to be able to erase some lines and add others.

 

Thanks

Welcome to the forums @Mark Johnson

You can edit a PDF by opening it in any Affinity application (menu “File → Open”).

You might need to experiment with the settings when you open it, and some things might not be imported (or imported fully), and the construction of the document might not be as you might expect, but you should be able to get something you can use.

Note: If the map has been (fully or partially) rasterised within the PDF then the editing process will probably be more complicated.
