Fix a typo in a purchase order PDF
A purchase order is a header of addresses and terms over a table of items. Change the items, quantities and delivery details before you issue it, and keep the layout your supplier expects. A single wrong letter is the most common reason to edit a PDF. Fixing it should change that letter and nothing else.
How to do it
- 1.Drop your PDF into MythosPDF and click the text you want to change.
- 2.Put the cursor on the wrong letter, delete it and type the right one.
- 3.Press Enter to save the line, then Export PDF.
What people change in a purchase order
- • PO number and date
- • Supplier and ship to addresses
- • Item lines, quantities and prices
- • Requested delivery date
- • Payment and delivery terms
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Only the words you touch are rewritten. The rest of the line keeps its exact position and spacing.
- • If the correct letter was never used anywhere in the file, MythosPDF loads the complete font so the letter matches.
Issue revisions, don't overwrite
If a PO was already sent, issue a revised one with a new number or revision mark so both sides know which is current.
Long descriptions wrap
Item descriptions wrap inside their cell and the row grows, pushing the rows below down evenly.
Questions people ask
+Will fixing one letter move the rest of the paragraph?
Only if the word gets wider or narrower. Then the words after it on that line shift by exactly the difference, and nothing else moves.
+Can I add rows for new items?
Yes. Click a cell in a nearby row and use Above or Below.
