Print function of Viewer adds additional blank page before and after pdf pages regardless of printer selected

[kendo-bot]

Bug report

Go to:
Demo of core features in jQuery PDFViewer widget | Kendo UI for jQuery. Note that pdf has 4 pages.

In the pdf viewer component demo select the printer icon and a print preview window opens. When the print preview window opens, note that the window indicates that there are 9 pages to print in the print preview. One page is added before the pdf pages and one after. This happens regardless of the printer selected.

Reproduction of the problem

1. open demo
2. click print
3. observe the print preview pop up

Current behavior

The window indicates that there are 9 pages to print in the print preview.
There are 5 additional blank pages added.

Expected/desired behavior

There are 4 pages to be printed.
As it is the case in FireFox and Edge browsers.

Environment

• Kendo UI version: 2023.3.1114
• Browser: Chome

Closing as the above is an issue related to the PDF page size and printer page size matching.

Reopening the issue as the PDFViewer is adding a blank page even if the paper size of the document is the same as the one chosen in the print manager.
