Add page numbers in a Thunderbird printout
Number every page of a PDF in the position and style you choose. This works on the PDF Thunderbird printed, even when its letters are only drawn shapes.
How to do it
- 1.Drop your Microsoft Print to PDF file into MythosPDF. Drawn letters are turned back into text in a few seconds.
- 2.Pick where the numbers go.
- 3.Download the numbered PDF.
How Thunderbird prints
- • A printed message starts with its subject, sender, date and recipients.
- • Plain text messages print in a fixed width font.
- • Pictures in the message print with it.
What that means when you add page numbers
- • Page tools work on the printout as it is; no text recovery is needed.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Numbers are added on top of each page; the original content is not rewritten.
- • Every page is numbered in one step.
Questions people ask
+Does numbering change my pages?
No. The numbers are an added layer; the page content underneath is untouched.
+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 Thunderbird?
If you still have the Thunderbird file and a lot to change, yes. For a quick fix to the PDF you already have, editing it is faster.
