Edit an Apple Pages syllabus PDF

Most of a syllabus carries over from last term. Update the dates, room, office hours, readings and grading details directly in last term's PDF. If it was made in Apple Pages, you can edit the PDF itself. MythosPDF decodes custom character codes through the font's own text map and handles spaces written as positioning. Apple system fonts are not open, so new letters use what the PDF contains, or a close open font with your permission.

  • • Some subsets use custom character codes described only by their text map.
  • • Word spaces are sometimes positioning rather than space characters.
