Are you not using the Microsoft Print to PDF functionality which should be in both Windows 10 and 11?

I replicated this and this is what happened. The print page, as you suggested came up, but having Microsoft Print to PDF I selected that option

The PDF saved and had the results

You are correct in that the button triggers the print page instead of, say, downloading a PDF, however if you have Microsoft Print to PDF you can either print, or print to PDF through the same GUI. So I would say this isn't a bug, but by design.

There is a feedback for this - having a PDF option which can be saved or emailed as opposed of having to manually Print to PDF. Would recommend voting to push it up the agenda - and I agree this won't be intuitive to all users so I voted as well

Have the completed form save as a PDF that can be emailed or saved. · Community (microsoft.com)

Hope that answers your question

Best, Chris

ChrisHoardMVPthanks for answering my question.

After trying it a bit more I have found the solution to my problem. I was unaware of a vertical scrollbar in the Microsoft Teams channel pop-up that allowed me to search for other printers and thus finding the Microsoft Print to PDF option.

Thanks for helping me out!

You can close this question.
