Edit an Overleaf 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 Overleaf, you can edit the PDF itself. Small fixes in text, references and captions can be made in the PDF. Larger changes are cleaner in the Overleaf source.
