@pattrickrice thanks for the report! Given what you have provided, it seems to me that the second tablature you have created might be incorrect:

E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G|-16-16-13-13-16-16-13-13-16-16-13-13-16-16-13-13-----13-h--13-h--13-h--13-h-13----13--
D|-------------------------------------------------16----16----16----16----16----16-----
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

specifically this part:

Can you attach a screenshot of that tablature to make sure I'm not missing anything?

[pattrickrice]

Here is a screenshot of that section.

I think I would be surprised that whether the section is "valid" or not would cause an error, especially since the export to text works fine? Validating the tab could make sense, but maybe highlighting the erroneous section would be useful.

@pattrickrice thanks! Correct me if I'm wrong, but hammer-on from 13 to 13 doesn't make sense and that's why the PDF doesn't work here. I'll think about adding a validation for invalid tabs.

Although your problem doesn't suggest a bug in the application, I have released a new version v3.5.0 which supports the "print" function from your browser. I hope you'll now be able to print your tabs :)

Wow super appreciate the fast turn around on that! Yeah i was misusing the h, but thanks for considering the suggestion!
