Hi,

We encounter a problem when we printing some pages with the standard .Print() method : the printing page is unreadable.

You can test to print this page for an example : http://fontawesome.io/3.2.1/cheatsheet/

It seems this error occurs when the page use a non-standard font.

Here is the font-family CSS property of the example page :
Code: CSS
font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;


How can we do to make this type of page is well printed?

Thanks!

Hi,

This appears to be a bug that also exists in Google Chrome. We have filed a bug report with Chrome:

https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=396939

We will see how they address this issue and then go from there.

Thanks!

Hi,

I hoped that this bug will be solved. More and more site use custom fonts for the display of icons.

Thanks

Yes. This appears to be a problem only related to Windows since printing code is platform dependent and the issue only exists in the Windows printing related code. Our guess is since Chrome can display the custom font on screen fine, so this issue wasn't noticed before. We will follow this issue and update here whenever any progress is made.

Thanks!
