Change a version number in a Canva PDF
Bump the version, revision or draft number of a document. This works on the PDF Canva exported, so you do not need the original file.
How to do it
- 1.Open the PDF exported from Canva in MythosPDF.
- 2.Type the new version.
- 3.Press Enter to save the line, then Export PDF.
How Canva writes PDFs
- • Designs are exported with subset fonts, many of them Google Fonts.
- • Each text box is placed on its own, often line by line.
- • Shapes and images are layered around the text.
What that means when you change a version number
- • Most Canva fonts are open, so new letters match. Each text box reflows inside its own box, and shapes behind the text are left alone.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Update it in the header, footer and cover if it appears in several places.
- • Compare with the previous version to list the changes.
Questions people ask
+How do I show what changed between versions?
Use Compare to see both versions side by side.
+Is it better to edit in Canva?
If you have the original Canva 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.
