How Adobe Illustrator writes PDFs

  • • Text may be live text or outlines.
  • • Artwork is layered around the text.

What that means when you add a bullet point

  • • Live text can be edited; text converted to outlines is drawing, not text, and cannot be edited.
  • • Adobe Illustrator often uses fonts that are not freely available. Letters already in the PDF are reused exactly; for a letter it never used, MythosPDF asks before using the closest open font and tells you which one.

What happens to the rest of the page

  • • The new bullet copies the list's marker, indent and line spacing.
  • • Items below move down to make room.

Questions people ask

+Where does the new bullet go?

Directly below the bullet you clicked, and the items below move down.

+Is it better to edit in Adobe Illustrator?

If you have the original Adobe Illustrator file and a lot to change, yes. For quick changes to the PDF itself, editing the PDF is faster and keeps it exactly as sent.
