How Apple Pages writes PDFs

  • • Export uses the macOS PDF engine with subset fonts.
  • • Some subsets use custom character codes described only by their text map.
  • • Word spaces are sometimes positioning rather than space characters.

What that means when you change the recipient

  • • MythosPDF decodes custom character codes through the font's own text map and handles spaces written as positioning. Apple system fonts are not open, so new letters use what the PDF contains, or a close open font with your permission.
  • • Apple Pages often uses fonts that are not freely available. Letters already in the PDF are reused exactly; for a letter it never used, MythosPDF asks before using the closest open font and tells you which one.

What happens to the rest of the page

  • • Address blocks keep their line spacing.
  • • The greeting line is separate; remember to change it too.

Questions people ask

+Can I reuse one letter for many people?

Yes. Edit and export once per recipient.

+Is it better to edit in Apple Pages?

If you have the original Apple Pages 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.
