Editing Heromaker generated PDFs - advice?

[Mathew]

Okay, so I have eromaker working, and I use it a lot. I have a setup going to turn the .lst files into nice PDFs. I would enjoy it if could add some more color text and/or a picture into the blank part of the page, or easily change the logo. Is there any free software out there that I could load the PDF into, then make small edits/changes/pastes, then resave it as a pdf?

Heromaker? Wow, didn't think anyone still used it. May I ask how you are going about converting it? Maybe whatever process you are using can be adapted to the task?

With reservations for not knowing what you're using to create your pdfs from HeroMaker (whether the resulting pdf is in a standardized format or not), and having not tested them personally, I think these two free editors are fairly popular, both as alternatives to Adobe Reader and for editing pdfs:

Foxit

PDF-XChange Viewer

In particular, the Foxit seems to be favored by several members of these boards, and others here will no doubt be able to give you more details on these or other options for you. :)

I got Foxit to do the work for me.

I took this:

And added pictures to make this:

I made PDFs from Heromaker by outputting to a postscript printer file, then using free software that converts postscript printer files to PDF.
