Save as PDF not working properly since release 135

Since Opera release 135 (20 August), Opera’s splendid and supremely useful native “Save as PDF” function has ceased to faithfully render the full content and layout of many webpages. Indeed, far from “exactly what you see on your screen”, I’m suddenly getting PDFs from many sites that are incomplete and otherwise impractical to use—which is distressing, since I've come to rely heavily upon this invaluable feature.

One of many sites I’ve found to be particularly affected is nytimes.com.

Is a fix for this problem under development?

There's a bug (RNA-4622) about "Save as PDF" not capturing pages correctly. It's fixed internally and should be in public builds soon probably.

You can monitor the posts at https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/ for new builds, click the changelog link in each post and check the log for the bug number above to see if the fix is included. Then, you can test in that build to confirm. I can also leave a comment here if I see it in the changelog.

@burnout426 - Thank you! I'm grateful for your reply. I hope, though, that "probably" proves to be "with certainty."
