How LibreOffice writes PDFs
- • Export embeds subset fonts, often Liberation or DejaVu.
- • Paragraphs are written line by line.
What that means when you edit a link
- • LibreOffice's default fonts are open, and Liberation fonts have the same widths as Arial, Times New Roman and Courier New, so edits match exactly.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Web addresses, email addresses (mailto) and phone numbers (tel) are accepted.
- • New links are shown in blue and underlined, as readers expect.
Questions people ask
+Can I remove a link but keep the text?
Yes. Select the linked text and use Remove link.
+Is it better to edit in LibreOffice?
If you have the original LibreOffice 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.
