Epub to PDF prints blank pages

I'm having an odd issue with Epub to PDF conversion. I'm on Mac and when I open the converted PDF in either Mac Preview or Adobe Acrobat Reader, it works just fine. But when I go to print the document, it only spits out blank pages. Any thoughts what the problem is?

No idea, but generally speaking it is likely to be a bug in the printer drivers on your computer. Something in the file is causing them to barf. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to go about figuring out what that might be.

Looks like I was a bit mistaken in my initial post. It seems that sometimes, the Calibre-converted PDF will show text in Acrobat Reader but other times, Acrobat Reader also shows blank pages. I can't figure out what happened to make one output work in Reader but another output doesn't.

It was an issue with the fonts, I've found a way around it.
