- 3.Swap the logo too if needed, then Export PDF.
How LibreOffice writes PDFs
- • Export embeds subset fonts, often Liberation or DejaVu.
- • Paragraphs are written line by line.
What that means when you change the company name
- • LibreOffice's default fonts are open, and Liberation fonts have the same widths as Arial, Times New Roman and Courier New, so edits match exactly.
- • Because LibreOffice uses open fonts, any letter you type is set in the exact same font, even if the PDF never contained it.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Names in headings keep the heading's size and weight.
- • Compare the result with the original to make sure no old name is left.
Questions people ask
+How do I catch every mention?
After editing, use Compare to see all changes, and search the PDF for the old name.
+Is it better to edit in LibreOffice?
If you have the original LibreOffice 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.
