How Adobe InDesign writes PDFs

  • • Fonts are embedded as subsets, often OpenType CFF.
  • • Text frames can be threaded across columns.
  • • Precise kerning and tracking are written into lines.

What that means when you add a table row

  • • Kerning and tracking are kept around your edit. Many InDesign fonts are commercial, so new letters come from the PDF or, with your permission, a close open font.
  • • Adobe InDesign tables keep their drawn borders; new or removed rows follow them.

What happens to the rest of the page

  • • Borders, shading and dividers of the new row copy the table's own.
  • • Rows below move down to make space; a full page continues on the next.

Questions people ask

+Are totals updated?

No. A PDF does not calculate. Update totals yourself.

+Is it better to edit in Adobe InDesign?

If you have the original Adobe InDesign 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.
