Adrien, As I understand it, the problem lies with the underlying WebKit rendering engine, which is known to have this problem on both Windows and Mac, as you've noted. Exporting pdf will only generate a pdf with the problem embedded in it. The solution is, as you've also noted, to export html and load that into a browser for printing.

A work around if you want to use export (I thought they provided the same result) is to open that export in a web browser and print from there. I've heard of decent mileage from Firefox and Chrome. I don't know about Safari, Edge, etc. Though I think the work around involved the HTML export, not PDF export.
