You can't directly edit PDF's. There are some converters that convert PDF to DOC, then you can edit them and create new PDF's.
But the one's I've seen weren't really good. At least they couldn't really handle spreadsheets. Dunno how they perform with simple text and images.

Adobe Acrobat will let you edit pdf's as well as Illustrator. The creator of the PDF has the option of not allowing editing also. The catch is that Adobe products are $$$.

Other options are to use something like WordPerfect which will make PDFs. There are also utilities, like CutePDF (which is free) that let you "print" to PDF format.
