    After doing:

    • Changing the Font in the OCR Editor process > File menu > Save as > Searchable PDF

    The PDF is still saved with the original font.

    How to Save the document with the new selected font (Arial) ?
    I need a new PDF document with the new font.

    The original PDF's font (New Times Roman) is not desired for the use case, on screen display and presentation.

    Thank you for your support.
