Firefox does not print properly a web page having a SWF on it

I have been desperately looking everywhere on the
web to solve this issue and this is actually the first time I ask a
question in a forum, because I can always find my answers by
Googling them.
This is fairly easy to explain, but this is a really annoying
issue.
I got the latest version of Firefox and the latest Flash
Player version. If I print out web pages having SWFs on them, they
do not show either on the print preview, then on the print out
itself. How could this happen? Using Microsoft Internet Explorer, I
have no problem whatsoever to have everything printed out in the
same context.
Is there actually a way to bypass that Firefox problem?
Thanks a lot,
Marc-André Lapierre

Does anyone know if this issue is being addressed by Adobe?
We have a Flash vector drawing app, utilizing XML, which was developed in '06. It works incredibly well, even though it was developed in AS2. However, we need the resulting images to be able to print within the page. It works fine for IE, but no dice for Safari and Firefox.
One work-around we've built in (essentially creating a rasterized image) slows down our system and has been causing our subscription rates to drop.
We are now looking at rebuilding this thing, but it is going to be expensive, time consuming and frustrating in order to deal with only a small segment of our users.
Would love to hear if Adobe is going to address this issue - has anyone heard anything or know of another fix out there?
thanks,
brian.

  • Firefox does not print in full web pages. It prints at best the left half of the page. This has only happened recently. It is not my printer as I get full page printing from from Internet explorer and other applications. Help!

    Firefox has started printibg only the left side of a web page . I have tried adjusting the settings without any success in fact it made the print area even smaller. I have adjusted all the settings on the print menu but cannot overcome this. How can I return to printing full web pages?

    Try the '''''reset''''' described here: <br />

  • I used advanced systemcare 5 on my computer and since doing so Firefox has not worked properly. Web pages won't load up like they should if at all. Has anyone else experienced this problem? What can I do to fix Firefox?

    It maybe to do with the registry cleaner. Most people seem to fix it by using restore points which I just realised I hadn't created any beforehand....don't lecture me on it I already know, stupid move.
    Using Vista.
    I also know I have a lot of stuff like plug ins and such that I don't need nor use but I'm lazy :D

    It does not immediately delete the files that are missing.. it merely tries to backup the new files it has discovered on the external drive. Since you moved the files there, the backup at least for a while will contain both copies.. and that is why it doesn't have enough space to backup.
    Fixing the problem.. hmm pondini is the expert.. you should be able to delete the backup of the photos in existing backup.. there are instructions to do it.. but it is a very poor way to do things.
    Much better. .archive off the existing backup.. this is long and slow but worth it. you need a usb drive of the same size as the TC drive. Then erase the TC and start a fresh set of backups.
    The alternative is to use the USB drive as a new target.. but it is much slower than the TC internal drive.

  • Firefox does not see my updated web page, but can see it using IE. Why?

    My web site is designed on Frontpage. I updated information of several pages. One page in particular does not show the updated information. http://www.dianedrain.com/RealProperty/TrusteeSalesForeclosures/TRUSTEEpendingTrusteeSales.htm
    Yet, IE does show the page with the updates. Why?

    Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
    *Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

  • Firefox does not open proprely on the page but forms only 1/3 of page

    When i open any site Firefox does not form properly on the page but takes up only 1/3 of the page (to the right).

    Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

  • Firefox 3.6.3 will not print a full web page. IE will print with no problem.

    Firefox won't print a full web page. When I check the print preview, it only shows what will print and the whole page is not displayed. I tried resetting my printer in about:config and that never helped.
    I am stumped and need help to resolve this please.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == After I download Ver. 3.6.3

    No...I tried the reset option as I mentioned above. It didn't work.
    But I think I just figured it out.
    The page margin was set up to something like 7000 in to the right.
    really, I have no idea how it got like that.
    So I was printing a blank page. Go figure...................

  • Firefox does not print. I AM DONE USING FIREFOX UNTIL THEY FIX PRINTING PROBLEMS ONCE AND FOR ALL!

    Firefox does not print. Mozilla doesn't seem to care to fix this problem, ignoring the numerous customer requests and pleadings for help. At this point, I AM DONE USING FIREFOX UNTIL THEY FIX PRINTING ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!!!!!!!
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    I honestly think the OP is making the correct decision to quit using Firefox due to all the print-related problems and Bugs that are in Firefox, '''that Mozilla doesn't want to fix'''. And there are more Bugs that affect only the Mac-platform (like the one where the user has to open a page in a new window for the 2nd web page printed from that window), than there are on Windows and Linux.
    Users having to reset hidden preferences repeatedly isn't a cure.
    The same 3 print-related Bugs in 2002 that caused me to take 6 months to switch over to ''Phoenix'' from IE 5.5, '''are still present in Firefox!''' I print nothing from Firefox these days without viewing Print Preview first, then about 10% of the time I do a "View in Opera" and do a Print Preview there - which shows a good print out 95% of the time (which IMO shows the page isn't at fault), and print it from Opera.

  • Firefox does not print the target frame in PeopleSoft Enterprise or Campus Soultions Portals

    When using PeopleSoft Enterprise Portal or Campus Solutions Portal Firefox does not print the target frame. PeopleSoft utilizes iframes and has indicated this is the technology path they will follow. On each page is a header, footer, and left menu. Content is displayed in the target after it is selected from the left menu. This issue prevents users from using the standard print preview or print functionality.

    We need the standard print and print preview functionality that all of our end users are already familiar with to work. We have a large end user group that is frustrated this functionality is available in IE and Chrome, but not Firefox.

  • Jewel case insert does not print properly since new itunes version was installed

    jewel case insert does not print properly since new itunes version was installed. The song list prints all of the line items too close together without space inbetween each song.

    I am having the same issue. If I close itunes and open with a new CD already in the drive, it will find it. But once that CD has been imported and ejected, itunes does not find the newly inserted CD and there is no command to tell itunes to "look" in the CD drive

  • Adobe Reader does not print more than 5 pages Toshiba E-Studio 232 in Windows 7

    Adobe Reader does not print more than 5 pages Toshiba E-Studio 232 in Windows 7.
    I contacted Microsoft representatives said the problem is the Acrobat Reader once all other applications print without problems.
    Please help me!

    We have the same problem with our TOSHIBA e-STUDIO6540C. We've tried different versions of adobe reader, even acrobat and many times it will only print some pages of any given document. Did you find a solution? To me it sounds like a toshiba issue but just wondering.

    This can be the result of selecting the wrong driver. An older, unsupported laser printer will sometimes work with the generic Postscript driver.

  • Facebook says that firefox does not re cognize other web sites for tagged photos.

    If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
    *Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    *Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    *Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
    *Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
    If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    Make sure that you do not block third-party images, the permissions.default.images pref should be 1.<br />
    See:
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
    There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

  • ADF JDeveloper wysiwyg visual editor does not render properly my jspx page

    Hi everybody,
    I am working with JDev 11.1.1.5 and I have an issue with the wysiwyg visual editor.
    My jspx page does not render properly: I cannot see the full page whatever is the resolution, even in full screen mode.
    I've tried to activate in the preferences the option Show Design Time Messages in Log but it does not display any error.
    When I run my page or execute a preview of my page, my page is rendered correctly the browser.
    Can someone help please?
    Thanks by advance

    Hi Frank,
    I've tried to change the resolution but whatever is the resolution the page is not rendered correctly. Actually, I can see the full page, but there are some panel boxes which are not displayed.
    In my page, I have a main panelgrouplayout which contains 2 dashboard panels. The second dashboard contains panel boxes, only the 3 first rows of panel boxes are displayed in this dashboard panel while I have 6 rows of panel boxes.
    In the design page, when I click on the 2nd dashboard and do "design this container", I can actually see that all the rows display correctly, it simply that I do not see them all in the main page.
    In short, the 2 dashboard panels display entirely, simply the 2nd one does not show all its content while displayed in the main page.
    Is there a solution for this?
    Thanks by advance

    You can try a direct connection and select No Proxy in the connection settings.
    You can find the connection settings in "Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection"
    Also do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.<br />
    You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.
