Edit a link in a letterhead printed to PDF
When your company moves or rebrands, update the letterhead template once and every letter made from it is right. If it was printed with Microsoft Print to PDF, the text may be drawn shapes. MythosPDF recovers it first, then you edit a link as usual.

What that means when you edit a link
- • Printed pages carry no links. After recovery you can add one to any text with Ctrl+K.
- • After export, the recovered text can be selected, copied and searched, which the printout could not do.
How Microsoft Print to PDF writes the PDF
- • Depending on the app and the fonts, Microsoft Print to PDF either embeds the fonts or draws every letter as a filled shape.
- • When letters are drawn as shapes, the PDF has no text at all: you cannot select, copy or search anything on the page.
- • Letters are placed one at a time in printer units, inside a flipped page transform.
- • Thin letters such as l, i and I, and the dots of punctuation, are often collected from many lines into one shape drawn later.
Questions people ask
+Can I remove a link but keep the text?
Yes. Select the linked text and use Remove link.
+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.
