How Notepad++ prints

  • • Notepad++ uses Courier New by default.
  • • Printing can keep the syntax colours of the editor.
  • • Headers and footers can show the file name, date and page.

New letters in Courier New

  • • Courier New is usually recognised automatically: MythosPDF keeps Liberation Mono, 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 Mono, so they match Courier New in width.
  • • Letters that are already on the page are reused exactly as printed.

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.
