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 edit a caption

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

What happens to the rest of the page

  • • Captions keep their smaller size and italic style.
  • • Figure numbers are plain text, so update them yourself.

Questions people ask

+Are figure numbers updated automatically?

No. Edit each number that changes.

+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.
