Mac OSX Preview Printing blank PDF

If you download a PayPal statement as a PDF or other form as a PDF, you may view it in Apple's Preview, but when you print it, it prints a blank page.

Here is a work around.
Right click on the pdf in the finder, choose 'open with' and choose Chrome.
Down in the right, choose print.
It comes up blank. Tick the box that says "Fit to page" and there it is. Print and it will print correctly.

For some reason fit to page in preview does not fix the problem.
It may work with other browsers, I chose Chrome.

As far as I know, it may be related to updating to El Capitan.

Over and Out!
