      Title:
      Locked myself out of an AI 10 file by editing with Acrobat 9
      Content:

      Hi!

      I recently relearned AI from several years ago. I have AI 10 and created some wiring schematics with it. I saved them in PDF, version 5, I believe. Later I opened this PDF file with Acrobat 9 and made the mistake of making a comment on it. So now I can't open it in AI to do any editing :-(   I think I shoulda saved everything in AI first, to prevent this. 20/20 hindsight.

      So I'm hoping if I upload the PDF file, would somebody be able to convert it into something AI 10 could open? I know it can open up Acrobat 5.

      Thanks,

      Dan

      PS: The wiring schematic is for the airplane I am building.
