[Bug 1397516] Re: evince only prints blank pages

 

This affects me as well with most PDFs, except for the test.pdf I just
attached (that I created with "print to file" from gedit).

If I "print to file" and choose PDF, the new document looks fine as well
(but still won't print)

If I "print to file" and choose PS, the new document is blank.


There is a workaround that works for me: Select "preview" instead of print from the print dialog, from the print preview window, click the printer icon (though if you have multiple printers, that probably won't select the correct one).
