SumatraPDF version

  • Version [e.g. 3.5.2, 64bit]

Describe the bug The printed paper has scrambled colors compared with the pdf in screen. At screen the colors are blue and red, in printed version the colors are light brown (where must be blue) and blue (where must be red). This behavior was observed in A4 and A3 printing.

Using Adobe Reader the printed color (and scale) was correct.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to file, open it.
  2. Click on print.
  3. See error in the printed paper

Expected behavior The colors must be the same (or approximate) of what we see at screen.

File that reproduces the problem File attached. color issue.pdf

Screenshots As viewed in Sumatra: image

The scale is off for some reason: image

Additional context File generated by CAD software Kicad version 7.0.11. In Adobe PDF Reader the printed version is correct.

The print is inverted colours but that ! should not happen ! there are many people that asked for such a feature and was never added to my knowledge.

Scale is normally the more difficult to control unless you ensure advanced print in settings file is scale=none and also check in the print dialog options for similar, in addition if using command line print add ,noscale.

Perhaps try latest portable pre-release https://www.sumatrapdfreader.org/prerelease
