      Printing to any device results in the usual header and footer with the text printing white (and thus not appearing in prints).

      I upgraded to 8.4.2 and had already been using dark mode. Unselecting dark mode and reselecting dark mode resulted in a change to the UI appearance (it is less dark), but text no longer prints white. However, it prints using a color very close to white so the text is not clearly discernable when printed.

      No other settings were touched, and dark mode is set to the default of black.

      Additionally, when attempting to set the background color to BLACK in the style configurator via “Global Styles --> Global Override” there is no change (unsure if this is intended behavior). Only a change to “Default Style” works.

      Tested using Acrobat PDF, and a laser printer.

      System is Windows 10 Pro, version 10.0.19044. Note that my system UI is set to Dark Mode - perhaps some kind of conflict?

      Cropped output example:

        @feathered-arch ,

        There is a section being added to the online user manual that goes over printing, and describes how things like Dark Mode affect printing. Since it’s not yet published, you can see it in the user manual repo

        Does this help you?

          @peterjones Ah-hah! Hadn’t noticed that sub-option. Fixed.
