Problem with Export to PDF using Firefox 3.0

posts: 1

Hi, I've set up a structure containing around 10 individual pages using TikiWiki 1.9.10.1 with the Damian theme.

The whole structure 'prints' to a PDF correctly under IE 7.05730 but when using FireFox 3.0 I get a pile of errors messages displayed (copied below).

Any suggestions welcomed.

I know that the PDF engine is buggy, by the devs' own admission. I can't seen to print any wiki entries that contain images, I get back a page of seemingly garbled characters (seems to be similar to what you posted, I recognized the "%PDF-1.3%" part!). Haven't noticed if the browser has anything to do with it or not. I recently changed to Firefox 3 but I had been having the same issues with version 2. Maybe I'll try IE and see if anything different happens.

I also haven't created any "structures" yet either so I don't now about making a PDF out of those.
