This is the page desiger app…I have a single report out of a host of 20 very complex reports that refuses to correctly convert to a pdf. The letters are jumbled and impossible to correct once in pdf format. Any ideas on a solution? I’ve printed to pdf using every application available…all reports are coming from the same base…same tables

I actually don’t know the answer to this, but I do know that Airtable has bugs when printing its default font of “Inter”. Is that the “Inter” font? If so, try changing it to a different font and see what happens.

@ScottWorld Dude…you totally saved my sanity, lol. This is priceless. Changing the font did the trick.

Ha, that’s great to hear! :slightly_smiling_face:

It makes no sense that Airtable would have bugs with the default font that they’re using for Page Designer.

Can you please report this bug to support@airtable.com and send them your screenshot as well? The more they hear directly from people about this issue, the more likely they are to fix it.
