User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; MSDigitalLocker; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727) Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6) Gecko/2009011913 Firefox/3.0.6 Whenever I print to the PDF writer, the text and font is different that was displayed on the screen. Photos/graphics are fine. However, this does not happen with IE. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Basically the same as stated above 2. 3. Actual Results: 7KH6HUYLFH&DSDELOLW\ 3HUIRUPDQFH6&36WDQGDUGVSURYLGHDIUDPHZRUNIRU LPSURYHPHQWDQGKHOSWRHQKDQFHWKHFDSDELOLWLHVDQGSHUIRUPDQFHRIVHUYLFH RSHUDWLRQVZKLOHJXLGLQJWKHLUR QJRLQJGHYHORSPHQ7WKH6&33URIHVVLRQD6OHUYLFH 6WDQGDUGGHILQHVPDMRUFULWHULDUHTXLUHGWRRSHUDWHDVXFFHVVIXOSURIHVVLRQDOVHUY LFH RSHUDWLRQ7KHVHFULWHULDDUHEURNHQGRZQLQWRGHWDLOHGEXVLQHVVHOHPHQWVHDFKZLWK Expected Results: This was supposed to have been a paragraph, in english, with typical, normal font/text. Printed to a PDF file -- the same as Internet Explorer does.
Printing with CutePDF as the print driver exhibits similar behavior (Windows XP SP3). Under FF 2.0.0.20, printing an html document containing Courier, Helvetica and Helvetica-Bold fonts generates a PDF where CutePDF substitutes CourierStd, ArialMT and Arial-BoldMT. When printing the very same html document from Firefox 3.5, CutePDF substitutes two True Type custom fonts (TTE109B009t00, TTE1997920t00). I also found FF 3.5 printing to CutePDF now converts the Courier font to a graphic image of the original text. Firefox 2.0.0.20 does not exhibit this behavior. The result is that CutePDF generates a significantly larger PDF when used with Firefox 3.5.
