From this comment I presume we're talking about a pdf (Adobe file). If so you can only do it in Adobe by b*ying the expensive full version of their software (not Reader which is free).

However there are several free download utilities which allow you to do this, also free online editor websites. You can also do it in OpenOffice.

Yes. My comment was purely meant to be technically helpful in the sense that photoshop is not the best way to edit a pdf file - a function for which there are many legitimate needs. It was not supposed to suggest that it is an appropriate thing to do with tickets.

Went to see Spymaster's Love In late last night at Udderbelly, it was very trashy and risque, but it was the kind of show where they know they are cheesy and bad, it was actually quite funny. Shame we had to leave before the end though, otherwise we might have struggled to find places to eat. The show started at 21:00 and had an interview around 22:10! Harmless fun 7/10

Is anyone here familiar with the iTunes festival? I have tickets for Paul Simon this Friday and it says doors open at 6.30 but they don't admit people after 8pm. Does that mean he won't start until 9 or so? Or if we show up at say 7 is there a chance it's full or we miss any support acts? Concerts I've been to in the past have usually been a lot clearer on this...

Anyone else going too btw? :D I applied for about 5 iTunes gigs and this was the one I was probably least excited about - but still, it's Paul Simon, it's got to be great!

I got Manic Street Preacher tickets and mine says that too. I would only suggest you try the ITunes website or if there is a customer service email/number contact them.

If anyone's thinking of going to this: I saw a preview at West End Live and while impressive juggling I didn't think it was interesting enough for a whole show. Just my two cents :)
