How Adobe Illustrator writes PDFs
- • Text may be live text or outlines.
- • Artwork is layered around the text.
What that means when you add page numbers
- • Live text can be edited; text converted to outlines is drawing, not text, and cannot be edited.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Numbers are added on top of each page; the original content is not rewritten.
- • Every page is numbered in one step.
Questions people ask
+Does numbering change my pages?
No. The numbers are an added layer; the page content underneath is untouched.
+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.
