This is actually a problem with MS Silverlight, which only occurs with some printers.

Afterwards, please print this PDF file to your local printer.

When not sure, support team can check on backend which is the incorrect data.

Please make surethat you are using the latest version of the Template downloaded from the system. Avoid saving the template locally and filling to upload later to the system.
