Editing a PDF that uses Anek Devanagari
Most PDFs embed only the letters they already use. Type a new letter and many editors either refuse or swap in a different font. MythosPDF recognises Anek Devanagari from the widths stored in your PDF, loads the complete open font, and sets your new text in Anek Devanagari itself. The rest of the page is carried over untouched.
Why Devanagari needs shaping
In Devanagari, letters combine into conjuncts, vowel signs can be drawn before the consonant they follow, and marks stack above and below. A PDF stores the finished glyphs, not the letters, so an editor has to shape new text with the full font. MythosPDF does this and also records the real letters, so the edited text stays searchable and copyable.
