Keith,
I know you know better than this. PDF is PORTABLE document format. It is just an electronic form of paper and was never intended to be a medium for composing or editing documents. Adobe has always advised Acrobat users to hang onto the original files, and if your marketing department is not doing so, it's their bad.
PDF is just the messenger. Don't blame the messenger.
