PDF is really more of a delivery format than an editing format.

Yeah, but Acrobat now supports mark-up, etc.  I have also edited
PostScript files in the past, which is the same basic idea.  I
COULD convert the files to PS in order to edit them, then convert
back to PDF.  But that's pretty ugly...

Do you have control over the source of these PDF documents?

No; I need to deal with random PDFs that I find on the web, etc.
