I am trying to print a file. A tubling e chart from allaboutvission.com. https://cdn.allaboutvision.com/images/tumbling-e-chart.pdf

The chart looks normal in view mode, but when printing it has overlapping text.

How can I remove the overlap and print what is seen when the file is opened?

How it this even possible and can it be removed from the file?

Hi @Michael27801920p5fc

Hope you are doing well and sorry to hear that. Please try to print the PDF as image. Open the PDF file > go to Print > Advanced > Print as image and check if that works.

Thank you the print as image works. However, it seems that this method changes the scale and/or quality slightly. I would not care if this wasn't an eye chart.

Still the best solution by far. I wonder how many other pdf files could have printed differently than what I could see.
