How to do it
- 1.Drop your scanned PDF into MythosPDF. The words on each page become clickable boxes.
- 2.Click the first word, Shift+click to extend along the line, then double click or press Enter and type the new text.
- 3.Press Enter to apply the change, then Export PDF.
Hidden OCR text layer
- • Scans with an invisible text layer, such as Adobe Scan files, are still treated as scans.
- • The hidden text is updated for the words you change, so search finds the new text.
Questions people ask
+Can I change a two line address?
Yes. Change each line on its own.
+What if a word cannot be changed invisibly?
You get the exact reason, such as a stamp in the way or a font that could not be identified, instead of a smudged page.
