    Community Answer

    Yes.

  • Question

    Why did the document get messed up when I used Google Drive? Tables are different, margins won’t adjust and I am trying to help a friend submit a paper that is due tomorrow.

    This happens because Google Docs uses a different code (UI) to a PDF Document. Hence why it is a different file type. So when the document is getting converted, it tries to place everything in the right place, but looses a lot of the code. This is why you have to edit it to make everything look smart again.
