Properly that anybody that knows how to write a document in Microsoft Office can change the document. So standard software, with a low learning curve. I had some problems getting them to accept to use Adobe. And now that turns out to be not a real option. Learning all the time as Benny Hill said. OpenOffice/ LibreOffice can import pdf files, and the user can edit. I think you can setup fonts, at least, and the structure is not preserved; also I'm not sure if all the features of pdf are supported , but maybe you can give it a try.
No the problem is not the layout. They are satisfied with that. They just do not want to be dependent on our company. They are. They can install the software and use it to modify the source and rebuild the pdf Or they can pay another company to do so, or some independent designer.
