How to do it
- 1.Drop your Microsoft Print to PDF file into MythosPDF. Drawn letters are turned back into text in a few seconds.
- 2.Rotate the pages that need it.
- 3.Download the PDF.

What that means when you rotate a page
- • Page tools work on the printout as it is; no text recovery is needed.
How Microsoft Print to PDF writes the PDF
- • Depending on the app and the fonts, Microsoft Print to PDF either embeds the fonts or draws every letter as a filled shape.
- • When letters are drawn as shapes, the PDF has no text at all: you cannot select, copy or search anything on the page.
- • Letters are placed one at a time in printer units, inside a flipped page transform.
- • Thin letters such as l, i and I, and the dots of punctuation, are often collected from many lines into one shape drawn later.
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.
