Microsoft: August updates break printing, PDF export in WPF apps

Microsoft's August 2026 Patch Tuesday updates for the .NET Framework introduced a regression that breaks printing and PDF export functionality in Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications. The issue affects developers and organizations running WPF-based software that relies on these features. Microsoft has acknowledged the problem and is working on a resolution.

Why it matters: Organizations using WPF applications should test August updates in non-production environments before deployment; printing and document export failures may disrupt critical business workflows until a fix is released.
