Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: PDF Viewer, defect, P3)

Description

[[e-mail]]

Attachment: broken print

When I print a pdf with some arabic characters in it, it sometimes prints weird things instead of arabic characters while they display correctly in firefox.
Unfortunately I don't know how to reproduce it, it's not bugged everytime.
But here is my test file : http://www.consulat-algerie-toulouse.org/Images%20et%20telechargements/formulaire%20demande%20passeport%20bio.pdf
You can try printing with pdf creator if you don't want to waste paper.
I joined a sample of a broken print.
Note that it's not a pdf creator bug, I first observed it when printing on paper.

If you print this PDF (you can use the MS XPS Document Writer as virtual printer) on your machine, does the issue appear at each try?

No, and I can't find a way to reproduce it.
Here what I just did :
- printed first page as .oxps
- go check the file
- it was ok
- go to firefox and printed full document as .oxps again
- go check the file
- the two first pages were broken

I could reproduce using latest Nightly 36.0a1 under Win 7 64-bit by printing a xps file, but only once out of three tries.

The PDF file is no longer available, but there's a good chance printing was fixed by bug 1524640.
