Change a name in a purchase order PDF
A purchase order is a header of addresses and terms over a table of items. Change the items, quantities and delivery details before you issue it, and keep the layout your supplier expects. Update a person's or organisation's name wherever it appears, in the same typeface as before.

What people change in a purchase order
- • PO number and date
- • Supplier and ship to addresses
- • Item lines, quantities and prices
- • Requested delivery date
- • Payment and delivery terms
What happens to the rest of the page
- • A longer name pushes the words after it along the line; right aligned names grow to the left.
- • Names often contain letters the PDF has not used yet, like Z, Q or accented letters. The complete font is loaded for them.
Issue revisions, don't overwrite
If a PO was already sent, issue a revised one with a new number or revision mark so both sides know which is current.
Long descriptions wrap
Item descriptions wrap inside their cell and the row grows, pushing the rows below down evenly.
