FF PDF Print has been working fine for some time.LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS it tarted acting different when wanting to save as PDF. Shot # 1 is same file but from Edge & what FF use to look like when viewing. Shot #2 is what it looks like when viewed with FF and Shot #3 is what it looks when text is selected. You can see the text is there. I have tried different Themes & Dark Reader to no avail. The screenshots don't seem to be able to upload.

Whoops, the attachments didn't attach. You can add them to a reply: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1373571#question-reply

Are you using the "Save to PDF" destination on the Print overlay, or a different printer, or an add-on?

Whoops, the screenshots I tried to add just sat sat spinning but never completing. I am trying again.... but upload is not completing.

Whoops, In the mean time I was reviewing the problem and it seems the problem has corrected in the several cases I was having. If the upload was working I could show you the problem before & after.

Hmm, momentary glitches are hard to diagnose, but sometimes there is an incompatibility between Firefox and your graphics card driver software. If there are more display issues, perhaps we could correlate the symptoms.
