How LaTeX writes PDFs

  • • pdfTeX embeds Type1 fonts such as Computer Modern.
  • • Kerning and ligatures are written into each line.
  • • Equations are built from many small pieces.

What that means when you change the date

  • • Body text and headings edit well; kerning is preserved around your change. Equations are best changed in the source and recompiled.

What happens to the rest of the page

  • • Dates in table cells stay aligned with the rest of their column.
  • • Digits already used in the document are reused exactly; any new ones come from the same font.

Questions people ask

+Can I change the date format?

Yes. Type it however you like, for example 5 March 2026 instead of 05/03/2026.

+Is it better to edit in LaTeX?

If you have the original LaTeX 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.
