Body

Issue

When printing a PDF, it does not print, or only prints a portion of the document.

 

Environment

  • Firefox
  • Chrome
  • Internet Explorer

Information

A system viewer (Acrobat) is often the best place to print from, as browsers do not always communicate with printers efficiently. 

 

Resolution

  1. Set the default PDF viewer in Windows to open with Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Acrobat Reader and print from there
    • Adobe Acrobat Pro (DC) is preferred as it has greater compatibility and features.
  2. If the issue is still occurring, select the Print as Image option in Acrobat
    1. Click the File menu
    2. Click Print
    3. Click Advanced
    4. Select Print As Image near the top right
