Do editable objects include text?

Yes.

And would that mean you could import multi-page PDFs into OPW (i.e. entire documents), which would then be converted to DDL on the fly (so to speak)? If so, that would be very useful. And would the formatting/look of the original PDF be preserved? That would be even more useful.

Yes, yes, yes, yes.

What inspires this line of thought is that things like Serif Page Plus offer such a feature.

However presumably anyone with RISC OS already has the functionality PDF to Draw, and then edit in !Draw?
