Garbage text at top and bottom of pdf's of gmail docs

Question

When I print gmail documents or emails, the pdf has a row of garbage text and symbols at the top and bottom of the document where the date, time and maybe a website address would normally be. The base of the document is fine with no issues. The rows of garbage at the top and bottom look extremely unprofessional. Looking for a way to fix this issue. See below for an example.

I also use Adobe Acrobat X*I *Pro and ACROBAT READER DC.

Adobe Acrobat Reader DC is a free software that can be used for viewing, printing, signing and annotating PDFs.

As you are not using the Adobe Acrobat PDF maker to create the PDF, there is nothing much we can be done.

Adobe Reader just helps you to view that PDF.

If you have Adobe Acrobat XI, I would suggest creating PDF using Adobe PDF maker.

Then check if you still experience the issue.

Let us know if you need any further help.
