- 2.Pick where the numbers go.
- 3.Download the numbered PDF.
How reporting tools writes PDFs
- • Tools like iText, JasperReports and BI Publisher write text piece by piece.
- • Some fonts are used only for spaces and punctuation, and Indic text is often marked per letter cluster.
What that means when you add page numbers
- • MythosPDF recognises fonts used only for punctuation and sets new letters in the document's real text font, including shaped Indic scripts.
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 reporting tools?
If you have the original reporting tools 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.
