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 the total
- • 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
- • Totals are right aligned, so longer amounts grow to the left.
- • Double check the arithmetic; the PDF will not do it.
Questions people ask
+Does it check the maths?
No. A PDF is a printed page. Check the numbers before sending.
+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.
