How Microsoft Outlook prints
- • A printed email starts with a header block: From, Sent, To and Subject.
- • Newer Outlook writes in Aptos; older messages use Calibri.
- • Replies quoted below keep the fonts they were written in.
New letters in Arial
- • Arial is usually recognised automatically: MythosPDF keeps Liberation Sans, the open font with identical letter widths, on its servers and matches the printed shapes against it.
- • Letters you type that the printout never used are set in Liberation Sans, so they match Arial in width.
- • Letters that are already on the page are reused exactly as printed.
Open fonts closest to Arial, measured

Questions people ask
+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.
+Will the page look different after recovery?
No. The rebuilt text uses the document's own letter outlines, and every page is compared with the original before you edit.
