How Microsoft Edge prints
- • Edge can add the date, page title, web address and page numbers as a header and footer.
- • Web pages often ask for Segoe UI on Windows, and fall back to Arial or Times New Roman.
- • Background colours and images print only when Background graphics is ticked.
What that means when you change the total
- • Letters you type that already appear in the printout, in the same font, are copied from its own letter shapes, so they print identically.
- • Digits are recovered like letters, so a changed number keeps the printed digit shapes and spacing.
- • 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
- • Totals are right aligned, so longer amounts grow to the left.
- • Double check the arithmetic; the PDF will not do it.
Questions people ask
+Does it check the maths?
No. A PDF is a printed page. Check the numbers before sending.
+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 Microsoft Edge?
If you still have the Microsoft Edge file and a lot to change, yes. For a quick fix to the PDF you already have, editing it is faster.
