How Thunderbird prints

  • • A printed message starts with its subject, sender, date and recipients.
  • • Plain text messages print in a fixed width font.
  • • Pictures in the message print with it.

What that means when you rotate a page

  • • Page tools work on the printout as it is; no text recovery is needed.

What happens to the rest of the page

  • • Rotation is lossless: the page content is not redrawn.
  • • Rotate one page or all of them.

Questions people ask

+Does rotating reduce quality?

No. Only the page's orientation changes.

+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 Thunderbird?

If you still have the Thunderbird file and a lot to change, yes. For a quick fix to the PDF you already have, editing it is faster.
