Edge, that is. I just received the pdf for the preliminary design of a 35 mile 69kV power line and tried to print. Edge declared itself the default pdf viewer/printer application and attempted to open the file. After about 10 minutes it finally showed a preview to me, but when I tried to print the document (33 C-size pages) it froze for 15 minutes, then declared it couldn't calculate the size of the job, then stopped completely, showing me a black screen.
Silly Microsoft; you're d$%^ed invasive browser can't do everything, nor should it! 
How do I get it off my computer? Grrr... Even if I could, that would probably break something else.
PS - Installed Acrobat and it printed immediately without a hitch.

I have a memory from a dew decades ago where MS was working very hard at integrating the operating system into their browser and claiming that the browser was integral to the entire system, etc. Funny how things go around again and the same old crap is starting. I suspect some enterprising Microsoft haters out there have come up with ways to turn off Edge, but I also think most of the "mandatory updates" just turn it all back on.

I don't know if this is still the case, but I found the graphics rendering in PDFs was way better when they used their own rendering engine in Edge vs the chromium version. Much sharper, cleaner. I noticed this when I was doing some SW development for a company in the printing industry, and previewing what a print job would look like.
I guess I can understand the reason for moving to chromium, but that doesn't mean MS didn't do some things better...

Shhh. That's not P.C.

I remember stress testing about 8 programs to print PDF. We had a 2000 page report.
I tried to print 10 copies in parallel on a βpausedβ printer so that it would get stuck in the spooler. (So I could just delete the paused jobs)
That one file eliminated 6 candidates.
The 2 remaining products had totally different licensing models which brought us down to one product very quickly. We had a great relationship with that vendor until we eliminated all printing from the product. Reasonable price and easy to work with.

Please remember that a lot of youth who was claiming NFT to be greatest thing ever which will change the world, has attention span small enough to already forget that NFTs exist.

I wouldn't count myself a youth but I had already forgotten NFTs existed.

Maybe you should explain to others what a NFT is.
Real physical gold doubled it's value in a few years. Basic math.

I'll go with that.
