How LibreOffice writes PDFs
- • Export embeds subset fonts, often Liberation or DejaVu.
- • Paragraphs are written line by line.
What that means when you change line spacing
- • 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.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Spacing changes in half point steps.
- • Content below moves by the total change.
Questions people ask
+Can this make text fit on one page?
Often, yes. Slightly tighter spacing can save a line or two.
+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.
