How Adobe Acrobat writes PDFs

  • • Acrobat created PDFs carry whatever fonts the source used.
  • • Edited Acrobat files sometimes contain replaced or added text objects.

What that means when you delete text

  • • MythosPDF edits them like any text based PDF, keeping the fonts already embedded.

What happens to the rest of the page

  • • The text is truly removed from the file, not covered with a white box.
  • • Deleting a paragraph pulls the content below it up by the space it used.

Questions people ask

+Is deleted text really gone?

Yes. The characters are removed from the page, so they cannot be copied or searched afterwards.

+Is it better to edit in Adobe Acrobat?

If you have the original Adobe Acrobat 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.
