How Foxit PDF Reader prints
- • Printing through Microsoft Print to PDF rebuilds the pages as a new file.
- • Comments print only when you choose to include them.
- • Filled form fields become part of the page.
What that means when you change a word
- • Letters you type that already appear in the printout, in the same font, are copied from its own letter shapes, so they print identically.
- • A letter the printout never used comes from the identified typeface. For fonts that are not openly available, MythosPDF asks before using the closest open font.
- • 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
- • A longer word can push the rest of the line along or wrap it onto the next line, just as a word processor would.
- • Words in bold or underlined keep that style when you retype them.
Questions people ask
+Can I replace the same word everywhere?
Edit each place where it appears. Each edit keeps its own line's layout.
+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 Foxit PDF Reader?
If you still have the Foxit PDF Reader file and a lot to change, yes. For a quick fix to the PDF you already have, editing it is faster.
