How LibreOffice Writer on Windows prints

  • • Documents opened from Word keep Word's fonts when Windows has them.
  • • Printing sends the laid out page to the driver.
  • • Tables print as drawn lines around text.

What that means when you edit a heading

  • • 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

  • • Headings keep their alignment: centred headings stay centred.
  • • A heading that grows onto two lines pushes the section down.

Questions people ask

+Can I make a heading bold?

Select it and press B. If the font has no bold style, MythosPDF asks before imitating one.

+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 LibreOffice Writer on Windows?

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