LaTeX papers
PDFs from LaTeX often embed fonts with only the characters used. Small corrections usually work; longer additions are best made in the source.
Add supplements
Combine the paper with supplementary material using Merge PDF.
Questions people ask
+Can I make a heading bold?
Select it and press B. If the font has no bold style, MythosPDF asks before imitating one.
+Can I edit equations?
Equations are drawn from many small pieces and are best changed in the source document.
