First page has gray background.
Problem reported by Bart Verbeek - 1/18/2022 at 5:11 AM

I have a problem with DocumentUltimate:

The first printed page is gray/grey when I use the print icon in the viewer.
I think this is related to the overlay of the print popup.

<div class="ui-widget-overlay ui-front" style="z-index: 100;"></div>

  1. .ui-widget-overlay {
    1.     background#aaa;
    2.     opacity.3;
    3.     filterAlpha(Opacity=30);
    }

This class is generated by the GleamTech dll and I cannot find any property.

The other pages just have a white background as suspected.

Can anyone help me with this??

Which browser and version are you using?
Are you using an old DocumentUltimate version?

There is no problem with my browsers on the live demo:

Pages to be printed are rendered inside this tag:

<div id="print-display" style="display:none">
  <img src="..."
</div>
I suspect some CSS rule of yours in your page is conflicting, e.g. do you have a generic rule like "div img" ? Though the viewer is created inside an iframe so your outer rules should not interfere.

>I think this is related to the overlay of the print popup.
To rule out if it's related to print popup, you can use documentViewer.PrintOptions property:

documentViewer.PrintOptions.SkipDialog = true;

The problem does also appear on your demo!!!!


The above file is printed (to pdf) on your demo website.
The first page has a gray background!

SkipDialog doesn't fix this for me.

I use version: GleamTech.DocumentUltimate.5.9.7
Browser: Google Chrome (I think other browsers don't have this problem)

The only way to skip the gray background is turning 'background images' off in my print dialog.
I can do this, but our customers not.

I hope you can still fix this problem.

Strange, you are right, if "Background graphics" option is selected on Chrome's print preview dialog, the first page is gray, first time I noticed this. I thought that option is unselected by default but anyway we will fix this shortly.
