New MacBook Air

Cannot open/print pdf

When creating a google doc and then try printing it will download and convert to a pdf which then can not be opened.

When you sign into drive dot Google dot com, you will see your documents in the following format:



When you click that vertical ⋮ ellipsis (more actions), select open with > Google Docs. With the document opened in Google Docs, select the File menu > Download > PDF Document.


From your Mac's Download folder, you can double-click that PDF to open it in Apple's Preview where you can then submit it to your printer via the File menu > Print… panel. Preview is the default macOS application for opening PDF.


Tested: macOS Sonoma 14.6.1 and Google Docs.
