    I think @Dov Isaacs would agree, Illustrator was never meant to be a PDF editor. Nor was InDesign. Our industry is has become PDF-based. Design is Illustrator-based. Adobe with Illustrator has the best design software in the world hands down. However, when you move past design, the best file...
