Pdf Export (but also print function) cuts some words

[Stucco81 0]

Hello,

i use Evernote since 2014 and i like it too much, but i've a problem when i try to print (or make a pdf file) a note.

Sometimes words (or images) between two pages are cutted (see the screenshot here enclosed)

How can i fix it? I tried to edit margin but without success..

Hi.  You're describing a problem (I think) with many PDF files - some are created from documents with pagination,  and therefore 'break' correctly across pages.  Others have no pagination and the PDF format doesn't care exactly where it breaks longer passages.  Evernote notes don't have breaks either,  so notes converted to PDF have the same issue. 

It is possible to 'fix' this by (if possible) loading the text into a word processor, editing it into correct pages and sections,  and then converting it to PDF.

This is a big problem with evernote. @gazumped this is not a problem with may PDF files. Other applications like OneNote and Google Docs, etc. can save as pdf extremely well.This is an issue with Evernote. I love Evernote but this issue is something that makes me want to not use the application. Evernote please fix this.

Hi. Just noticed this - as you're a subscriber I suggest you raise the issue with Evernote Support.  We're a -mainly- user-supported forum, and though Evernote staffers do read the comments you're unlikely to get any action being taken on the issue this year.  Support can at least look into why this is happening...

Same error. Why doesn't evernote fix this problem?

Upvote!  This is also happening to me, and also only with Evernote.  I've been frustrated with Evernote's printing for a long time. The latest update had so much great stuff, I'm bummed that they didn't address this as part of it.

I have the same problem.  Cuts off the last paragraph and part of an image on a 7 page print.

Hi.  This is a 'legacy' Evernote thread,  so if you're using 10.x you're in the wrong place. It's also not a voting thread (though they're for feature requests not bugs) and if you are on Evernote legacy,  Support would inevitably suggest you upgrade to v10.  Either way this seems like an issue with two possible work-arounds:

1. Download which ever version of Evernote you're not yet using and try that.
2. If that doesn't work - copy your note into a 'proper' word-processor and save to PDF from there.

-And if this is still an issue in v10 (and you're a subscriber) - contact Support.  It'll take a while,  but may will be able to help identify the issue and get it fixed.

Please, there is a possibility to fix this error in Evernote???? 😰

I love evernote to organize my study notes, but after that, I want to print them...

Other note processors (like Notion, OneNote) didn't have this problem.....

I'm upvoting this. Just happened to me. Annoying and feels sloppy.

To get PDF exports that are not cut off - right click on the note you want to save (control click on a Mac) and choose "Save As" - in my case, this downloaded a PDF that was not cut off.

FYI - the lack of fixes on issues like this and others finally convinced me to switch to Notion.  Everything exports beautifully from there with no workarounds.

If it suits your use case, fine.

Doesn’t work for anybody…

hi there. I have the same problem. Love organizing with Evernote but when I print they are cute off. if we could see the margins of the paper so we can know where a page ends would be helpful 

[PinkElephant 8,720]

If you use the "Export Note as pdf ..." option, you get a choice of margins, and you can see a preview how the "printout" will change based on the margin settings.

Maybe this can serve as a workaround for the missing Preview in the Print dialogue. To me it seems the Preview build into the export was provided by EN, whereas the missing preview in the Print function is due to the OS not providing for it. So it could be on other computers, there is a preview in the print function as well.
