How Visual Studio Code prints
- • The Windows default editor font is Consolas, falling back to Courier New.
- • Code prints in one monospaced font where every letter has the same width.
- • Line numbers print only when the print extension adds them.
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.
Open fonts closest to Courier New, measured

- • Roboto Mono Light: identical letter widths
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.
