(Firefox :: PDF Viewer, defect, P3)

Description

[Ben Smith]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_5) AppleWebKit/536.30.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/6.0.5 Safari/536.30.1

Steps to reproduce:

On a windows machine open a equation heavy PDF such as:

http://bensresearch.com/downloads/Piracy.pdf

Print the document.  The equations are incorrectly rendered.

This may be related to bug 875205, however, this bug seems to be specific to the printout and not everywhere.

On the mac version, if you try to print to PDF it produces an invalid PDF.


Actual results:

Equations are wrong in printout.






Expected results:

The equations should be correct.

I couldn't reproduce it with Fx 24 on a Win 7, 64-bit machine, but it may be similar to bug 880181.
Can you please check if you have the same results? Thank you

@Petruta the original machine that I got that behavior from is Win 7 x64, FF24.  I can't replicate it on other machines.  For instance it works fine on my macs and fine on Win8 in parallels. For what it's worth, the printer is a xerox.
