Edit an Adobe InDesign syllabus PDF
Most of a syllabus carries over from last term. Update the dates, room, office hours, readings and grading details directly in last term's PDF. If it was made in Adobe InDesign, you can edit the PDF itself. Kerning and tracking are kept around your edit. Many InDesign fonts are commercial, so new letters come from the PDF or, with your permission, a close open font.
