Hi, I just wrote it down by hand, maybe thats the most secure anyway Smiley

Sure I can help you debugging, so I am in for beta.

Don't forget to write down the wallet ID and version as well.

This is a bug. You can either try to print from a different OS (say some Ubuntu flavor will prolly get it right), or participate to the 0.96 testing phase to help me fix the issue for the next version.

Hello,

I am a newbie and have some issues printing the Paper Backup in Armory.

My Setup:
Hardware     => Surface Book i7/512GBSSD/16GBRAM
OS               => Windows 10 Pro 64bit
Armory        => V. 0.95.1 beta (turned off option "running bitcoin core in background" due to error building db, but works now, armory is online)
Bitcoin Core => v. 0.13.2

First I created a wallet and tried to use the backup-option in the last step to print the paper backup. But apparantely nothing happens at all when I push the button (should there open a new window?).

So I boldly skipped that step and tried to backup the now existing wallet. I got better Luck now, when choosing paper backup a new window opens with the paper backup info. BUT it is totally improperly formatted, the numbers exceed the window and when I print it out, it is also wrong formatted: font-size 20+, Keys not completely readable, etc.), see images below:

Is this a win10 topic or what can I do? Since the screen output seems to be malformed too, I dont think its a printer setup problem.

Any help appreciated.
