Edit a QuickBooks Desktop purchase order printed to PDF

A purchase order is a header of addresses and terms over a table of items. Change the items, quantities and delivery details before you issue it, and keep the layout your supplier expects. Printed from QuickBooks Desktop to Microsoft Print to PDF, it may hold drawn letters instead of text. MythosPDF recovers the text so you can edit it.

How QuickBooks Desktop prints

  • • Forms print from templates through the Windows printer.
  • • Line items and amounts sit in right aligned columns.
  • • Totals are printed as text; nothing recalculates in the PDF.

How MythosPDF makes a Microsoft Print to PDF file editable

  • • The page is read with OCR, then every word is matched to the letter shapes that draw it.
  • • Letters are grouped into fonts by their outlines and size, so bold, regular and heading text stay apart.
  • • The typeface is identified from letter widths and shapes, and each line gets its real baseline.
  • • The page is rebuilt with text fonts made from the document's own letter outlines, so it looks exactly as printed.
  • • Every rebuilt letter is checked against the original position, and the page is compared pixel by pixel before you edit.

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.

+Can I add rows for new items?

Yes. Click a cell in a nearby row and use Above or Below.
