CUPS-PDF prints a blank page

Hello,
I'm using Mageia 9.
When I print a document using the CUPS-PDF printer, I get a .pdf blank file.
I tried with two drivers:
Code: Select all
Generic CUPS-PDF Printer (no options) (en)
and
Code: Select all
Generic CUPS-PDF Printer (w/options) (en)
with the same result

Tip from our Errata currently: Possible Workarounds: Many programs can export pdf directly. Sometimes by a menu entry like "File > Export" (i.e LibreOffice). In some programs the pdf export is a choice in the print dialogue, like choosing any printer and where also CUPS-PDF is listed, named as "Save to pdf", "Print to pdf" or similar. (Okular, Firefox, Thunderbird, Chromium ...)
