PDF printing error

[paulhaerkens]

Dear Aspose team,

I have a PDF file generated from a html file and when I try to
send the generated PDF to a printer using LPR/LPD the PDF it isn’t printed correctly. I tried all
the existing Aspose.Pdf.PdfFormat’s but none are printed correctly and the output
result was slightly differed for each Aspose.Pdf.PdfFormat

I attached zipped html file

I hope you
can help me,

Kind regards,
Paul Haerkens

my Code

Aspose.Pdf.Generator.Pdf pdf = new Aspose.Pdf.Generator.Pdf();
Aspose.Pdf.License license = new Aspose.Pdf.License();
license.SetLicense(“Aspose.Total.lic”);

Aspose.Pdf.HtmlLoadOptions htmlLoadOptions = new Aspose.Pdf.HtmlLoadOptions();
htmlLoadOptions.PageInfo.Margin.Bottom = 10;
htmlLoadOptions.PageInfo.Margin.Top = 10;
htmlLoadOptions.PageInfo.Width = Aspose.Pdf.PageSize.A4.Width;
htmlLoadOptions.PageInfo.Height = Aspose.Pdf.PageSize.A4.Height;

Aspose.Pdf.Document pdfDocument = new Aspose.Pdf.Document(new MemoryStream(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(html)), htmlLoadOptions);

MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream();
pdfDocument.Convert(stream, Aspose.Pdf.PdfFormat.v_1_5, Aspose.Pdf.ConvertErrorAction.Delete);
pdfDocument.Save(ticket.FullName, Aspose.Pdf.SaveFormat.Pdf);

pdfDocument.Dispose();
stream.Dispose();

Hi There,

Thanks for contacting support.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for contacting support.

I have tried printing the PDF documents using Adobe Soft printer and Microsoft XPS Document writer while using Aspose.Pdf for .NET 17.4.0 while using following code snippet and I am unable to notice any issue.

However for the sake of correction, I have logged an investigation ticket regarding LPR/LPD problem as PDFNET-42587 in our issue tracking system. We will further look into the details of this problem and will keep you updated on the status of correction. We are sorry for this inconvenience.
