    Try an on-line solution.

    I found these with a quick search, but have not tried them.
    Have a look around and you may find sthg that meets your needs. Check carefully for accurate reproduction of anything whose formatting is slightly complicated. (Think different fonts, indents, text vs pictures.... awkward areas where the layout is complex)

    Editor:
    PDFzorro | edit pdf-files online
    Converter - on line- no installation:
    Free Word to PDF Creator. Create PDF Online
    Form filler, editor:

    You didn't say 'does anyone know of a free portable pdf editor' so:
    All-in-One PDF Editor, Converter, Filler & Merger
    Foxit Advanced PDF Editor 3.0.5 Portable --- Edit Your Pdf File | A Most Popular Technology Portal

    Just search for
    portable pdf editor

    and if you prefer
    freeware portable pdf editor

    Then test it thoroughly... not all pdf editors are created equal.

    Yup, Sumatra is quite good as well.. Sumatra PDF Portable | PortableApps.com - Portable software for USB, portable and cloud drives

    If you do not want to use any installer just extract the exe with 7-zip

    any pdf creator which need not to be installed-capture.png

    Then associate .pdf files with it.

    While searching for portable pdf creator, I came to know about portable apps.com and some pdf creators but when I downloaded and tried to use them, it started installing something like portable application, so I cancelled that. May be I missed something or portable apps.com were fooling in the name of portable pdf creator. Please guide me.

    It installs a launcher only - what you want is to get the undelying exe only - that's why I added the extract bit.
