Question

If I export a PDF, the printer prints a blank sheet of paper. How to fix this?


Kim Strigl

Whenever I export a PDF and try to print it from Preview, the sheet of paper comes out completely blank. I can only print Figma PDFs from Adobe Acrobat—when I do, the issue doesn’t occur. But that only solves my problem, not the issue for the rest of our team, who don’t have Acrobat.


I notice a similar issue when placing the PDF in InDesign, the page also stays blank there, which makes me feel that something is wrong with the PDF itself. Is this a bug? Is there a workaround that doesn’t involve exporting as JPG/PNG? 

Additional information:

  • Multiple team members have this issue, but not everybody.

  • The PDF shows the full design in Preview.

  • Printing as a JPG/PNG works fine.

  • The issue also occurs from FigJam.
