Maybe this is a known bug (on newest Firefox and Win10) but have a look.
Go to sample webpage (from german news magazine) :
https://www.manager-magazin.de/politik/ ... 3b2823a9f3
As you can see there are 2 charts embedded in article text
Now print the whole webpage (into PDF file).
The 2 mentioned SVG-based charts are NOT printed.
Instead the corresponding page areas are left blank
I think this is a bug.
Is there a workaround for this?

Sometimes images are somewhere else besides the downloaded page and not available outside of the page's call.
Look at the way the page is made using the tools or Save the web page, complete and see if they display.

Does the page print correctly in other browsers?

Re: Bug: Firefox does not print SVG diagrams (into PDF file)
Does Win10 natively support "print to pdf", or are you using a FF extension, or third party utility... ?
Fire 750, bring back 250.

I think Windows 10 natively supports the feature.
Chrome shows "Save as PDF" in the print dialog.
Firefox shows "Microsoft Print to PDF" in the print dialog.

Yes, the PDF is printed correctly including SVG diagrams in Chrome
In Firefox I tried "Save to PDF" and other PDF printer drivers.
All of them omit the SVG diagrams.
So its a Firefox bug

Re: Bug: Firefox does not print SVG diagrams (into PDF file)
this won't help--since I can't read the language--
but I saved the file to PDF and it saved the chart and web page (complete) as I saw it--but I see only one chart--(but it saved it to file--and would have printed it) and I did not know because of language how to get the other chart to show.
