Printing your application - formatting problems

Has anyone had an issue with printing our the preview of their application? When I print from Firefox, some of the text from my personal statement comes out in a different font. When I print from chrome, there's no problem.

I called LSAC tech support but they don't have a solution. I don't want law schools to print my app and have it coming out looking funky. I verified all formatting was correct and re-uploaded in PDF format instead of .docx. Same result. Chrome is fine, Firefox is not. No difference whether I use Mac or PC.

    Hmmm. Maybe you should try resetting FireFox:

    How are you exporting the word file to PDF?

    You could try printing to a virtual printer. Then attempt to print that file from firefox.
