"Overlay with PDF" and print from Firefox and Internet Explo

Post by Peter2 »

I tried to use "Overlay with PDF in background". While printing from MS Word it works fine.

Printing a HTML from FF 33 or IE 10 creates an intransparent PDF which covers the underlying PDF totally. If the "Overlay-PDF" is in the foreground, than the transparency is OK. It is not caused by the know Firefox-issue "FF creates pixel-output instead of textfiles", because a text can be selected as text.

I suppose it is an issue / behaviour of the browsers and not of PDF-XChange, but nevertheless I want to mention it here.

Hello Peter,

Thank you for the report. I seem to be having some trouble reproducing the issue. Could you please send me the following:
1. Link to what you are trying to print.
2. PDF you are overlaying with.
3. Resulting PDF
4. A screenshot of your printing preferences would be very useful to insure a reliable test.
5. If possible, could you please illustrate how the file should behave?

Thank you!
