Questions people ask
+Do I need both files?
Yes. Add the old and the new version to compare them.
+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 Gmail printed from a browser?
If you still have the Gmail printed from a browser file and a lot to change, yes. For a quick fix to the PDF you already have, editing it is faster.
