How macOS Preview and Print writes PDFs
- • Uses the macOS PDF engine with subset fonts.
- • Fonts are often Apple system fonts.
What that means when you change a phone number
- • Letters already embedded are reused; for new letters in Apple fonts, you choose whether to use a close open font.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Numbers next to icons stay beside their icon; the row moves as a unit if the number gets longer.
- • Plus signs and brackets are set in the same font as the digits.
Questions people ask
+Will the phone icon move?
Only if the text in front of it gets wider. Icons in a contact row move along with their text.
+Is it better to edit in macOS Preview and Print?
If you have the original macOS Preview and Print 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.
