Technically no. PDF's result from creation from another document format. Say you have MS Word and Adobe Acrobat standard installed. You would create your document in Word then print it to PDF via Distiller. If you have the pro version you can edit the PDF and create/add fields or interactive areas in the PDF but it doesn't function like a standard word processor.

Create PDFs for free:
PDF stands for Portable Document Format (which can be read on Windows, Mac, Linux, and Palm systems). With the Adobe Reader almost anyone can view and print, but not edit, a PDF file.
Almost any document can be converted to PDF format (including presentations, graphics, and spreadsheets). This includes the file you made using MS Word, MS Excel, MS PowerPoint, MS Publisher, Adobe PageMaker Plus, Corel WordPerfect, Lotus 1-2-3 or Lotus Notes). PDF files retain the look of the original file, including fonts, color, links, images, and formatting.

Instead of using Adobe software (which is expensive), PDFCreator from SourceForge.net is a free alternative to creating a Portable Document Format (PDF) file. PDFCreator lets you send formatted documents and have them keep their appearance on another monitor or printer.
The download adds a PDF creator under your list of printers. To save in PDF format: select a printable Windows file and print to the PDFCreator. You can then read, print or e-mail the file.
PDFCreator requires Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, or XP

If you have Adobe Acrobat, you can create and edit text in a PDF file. But PDF is a result, not an origin. You would maintain your document in Word or other word processor, then MAKE the PDF file.

You can convert Microsoft Word documents to pdf with the new Microsoft Office 12.Try taking a snapshots of the pdf and then use Adobe Photoshop to take the images together and use text writing tool in Adobe Photoshop.

I suppose you can edit ("type in pdf format") a PDF file.
You'll need Adobe Acrobat Professional.
You can have the trial version at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/index.html

You need to use Adobe Acrobat Software.
Alternately, use MS-Word for all your typing as usual. Download and install PDF Factory from http://www.pdffactory.com/. It allows you to create PDF docs staright from Word. Its cheap (no cost) and easy.

In what matter? In where? In a program? You can save a file as a PDF.
