How WPS Writer prints

  • • Documents keep the Windows fonts they were written in.
  • • Printing sends the laid out page to the driver.
  • • Word compatible layouts print the same as in Word.

What that means when you change an email address

  • • 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

  • • Linked text is shown in blue and underlined so readers can tell it is a link.
  • • Long addresses push the rest of the contact row along instead of wrapping mid address.

Questions people ask

+Will the old mailto link still work?

Update it with the link button so it points to the new address.

+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 WPS Writer?

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