New letters in Arial Narrow

  • • Letters that are already on the page are reused exactly as printed, in the printout's own shapes.
  • • Arial Narrow is not an open font. For a letter the printout never used, MythosPDF asks before using the closest open font and tells you which one.

What that means when you change a product name

  • • 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.

Questions people ask

+Can I change the product photo too?

No. The rebuilt text uses the document's own letter outlines, and every page is compared with the original before you edit.
