Rewrite a paragraph in a SAP GUI printout
Replace a whole paragraph and keep the page design: the new text reflows in the paragraph's own font and width. This works on the PDF SAP GUI printed, even when its letters are only drawn shapes.

How SAP GUI prints
- • Front end printing can send documents to any Windows printer.
- • List reports often use a fixed width font so columns line up.
- • Forms print with their logos and lines as drawing.
What that means when you rewrite a paragraph
- • Letters you type that already appear in the printout, in the same font, are copied from its own letter shapes, so they print identically.
- • A letter the printout never used comes from the identified typeface. For fonts that are not openly available, MythosPDF asks before using the closest open font.
- • After export, the recovered text can be selected, copied and searched, which the printout could not do.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Pasted text arrives as plain text, so it takes the paragraph's style instead of the clipboard's.
- • Shorter text pulls the content below up; longer text pushes it down.
Questions people ask
+Can I paste text from Word?
Yes. It is pasted as plain text and set in the paragraph's own font.
+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.
+Is it better to reprint from SAP GUI?
If you still have the SAP GUI file and a lot to change, yes. For a quick fix to the PDF you already have, editing it is faster.
