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 make text bold
- • MythosPDF edits them like any text based PDF, keeping the fonts already embedded.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • The real bold style of the same family is used when it exists.
- • If the family has no bold, MythosPDF asks before imitating one.
Questions people ask
+Is the bold the real font?
Yes, when the family has a bold style. Otherwise you choose whether to imitate it.
+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.
