I do not see my complete handwritten note when I print or export to PDF

When printing out / exporting a handwritten note that doesn't fit on one page, I end up with a useless cut-off version of that note - as little as as one page can cope with - followed by a blank page, eventually containing some typed text if there was any in the same note.

What seems to be the problem?

Secondly, and this is very annoying because this problem persists for ages, why is Notes not an option when we must choose a topic in this forum?...

MacBook Air 15″, macOS 14.0

This also happened to me. As a possible workaround you can go to Print (Cmd+P) then go under "Preview" section there you can change the scale of the print. Like 80% insted of 100%. Then click on PDF dropdown option and hit SAVE AS PDF. And voilá!

I imagine two reasons, Notes is part of macOS, and the powers that be don't feel a Notes community is necessary.
