Description

I have a PDF with 2 images in it on 2 separate pages. Each page also has some text. When I try to print the PDF, the first page renders fine, but nothing renders for the second page and I get a blank page printed.

    String sourcePDF = "C:\\temp\\CPTest\\MyTest.pdf";
    PrinterJob job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
    try (PDDocument document = PDDocument.load(new File(sourcePDF))) {
      job.setPageable(new PDFPageable(document);
      PrintService service = getPrintService("Adobe PDF");
      job.setPrintService(service);
      job.print();
    } catch (IOException | PrinterException e) {
      throw new RuntimeException("Unable to print file " + sourcePDF + ".", e);
    }

I have also tried printing to a physical printer with the same results. Saves me paper by just using the Adobe PDF printer.
