    Some WPF applications can fail with a System.IO.FileFormatException when printing or generating PDF/XPS content using certain fonts, including Calibri. The issue is resolved in the September 2026 .NET Framework cumulative update and later updates.7

    How to apply the workaround Workaround

    Applications can temporarily enable the Switch.MS.Internal.TtfDelta.DisableCmapAndSbitOverflowProtection AppContext switch in their configuration file when needed.7

  2. Resolved Affects: Everyone

    After installing the August 2026 .NET Framework cumulative update, WPF applications that print—or display print preview…

    WPF applications printing or previewing an in-memory XPS document registered with System.IO.Packaging.PackageStore can fail with a System.IO.FileFormatException when the package identity uses an absolute pack URI. The issue is resolved in the October 2026 .NET Framework cumulative update and later updates.8

    How to apply the workaround Workaround

    If the application can be rebuilt, use an absolute package identity that does not use the pack scheme. Otherwise, temporarily enable the Switch.System.Windows.DisableXpsPackageBoundaryRestriction AppContext switch in the application configuration file.8

    Step-by-step workaround instructions
    2 steps
    Show steps Hide steps
    Step-by-step procedure
    1. If rebuilding the application, replace the pack URI identity with one that does not use that scheme, such as xpspack://<guid>.xps.
    2. If the application cannot be rebuilt, add Switch.System.Windows.DisableXpsPackageBoundaryRestriction=true under AppContextSwitchOverrides in its configuration file.
