How Notepad prints

  • • Notepad prints plain text in one font for the whole page.
  • • Recent Windows versions use Consolas by default; older ones used Lucida Console.
  • • Page Setup can add a header and footer, such as the file name and page number, which print as text like the rest.

What that means when you add your signature

  • • Pictures in a printout stay images and can be changed. A logo the app drew as shapes is drawing, not a picture, and stays as printed.
  • • After export, the recovered text can be selected, copied and searched, which the printout could not do.

What happens to the rest of the page

  • • The signature is an image of your handwriting, not a certificate based digital signature.
  • • Your saved signature stays in your browser.

Questions people ask

+Is it a legally binding signature?

Electronic signatures are accepted for many documents in many countries. Check the rules for yours.

+Why can't I select text in my Microsoft Print to PDF file?

The driver often draws every letter as a shape instead of writing text. MythosPDF reads those shapes and turns them back into real text before you edit.

+Is it better to reprint from Notepad?

If you still have the Notepad file and a lot to change, yes. For a quick fix to the PDF you already have, editing it is faster.
