Build ID: 20180118215408

Steps to reproduce:

I tried to print a PDF that was generated with LaTeX (MiKTeX pdfTeX-1.40.16) (link: https://iamjannik.me/latex-out.pdf) was open in Firefox's PDF viewer.


Actual results:

The printed file had garbage characters all over the document (see https://iamjannik.me/errors-in-latex.jpg as an example) at any latexy character.


Expected results:

The result on paper should be the same as the rendered pdf in the viewer.

I reproduced this issue on Windows 7 x64 and Windows 10 x64 using Firefox 64 Beta 7. 

I used this pdf: http://gahp.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/sample.pdf and the printed file contains garbage characters. The issue is also reproduced in Print Preview. Please see attachment "issue.png".

I also reproduced the issue on Nightly 65.0a1 (2018-11-08), but on Firefox 63.0.1 (20181030165643) I can't reproduced it.
