Just tried it now and it works, I've not done anything to FF or Outlook / Hotmail.

Thank you, Microsoft!

Similar problem since already several Firefox version (current one is v75.0): - Printing any web pages, any other doc type with the 'Adobe PDF' driver is working - With the 'Win2PDF' or the 'Microsoft to PDF' drivers gives me a blank pdf content (except the title and page number) - Doing the same thing on Chrome or IE does not give me any empty pdf content.

The Issue is somewhere in Firefox.

Hi Eric78, usually any PDF creating through Print will look like what you see in Print Preview. I'm surprised you get different results from different PDF printers. I do know that if you have the paid version of Acrobat with its add-on, its toolbar button works differently (scooping out the page content for conversion, bypassing printing).

If Print Preview shows a blank page, that's probably a bug in laying out the document for printing.
