I have a very simple question to ask. I tried to print a page in Acrobat DC but it printed gibberish. I tried it twice and both times it was just plain greek to me. However, the same page prints just fine using Microsoft PDF printer in Windows 10. Does anybody know why? the link is here:
<Physics - Focus: Winds Can Make a Martian Mountain >
It prints something like this:
Can somebody try on their Win10 machine to see if they are getting the same. There is a print button on top right corner of the page and that is what I am using. See this picture:
You didn't say what browser you were using, but I did load the indicated web page with Internet Explorer 11 and pressed that Print button directing the output to the Adobe PDF PostScript printer driver instance under Windows 10 Pro 1709 (the most-recently released update) which yielded the PDF file attached to this posting. There were no issues whatsoever. This resultant PDF file displays and prints without any problems whatsoever under the latest version of Acrobat DC Pro.

OK thanks. I tried in IE11 and it does print fine. I was using FF version 45.0.2 and it has a serious problem it seems.
Now I need to contact the ADMIN to upgrade the Firefox so that it works like IE or Edge.
Thanks for the help.
