When display: none is set on an inline element will produce extra spaces in
print preview (PP) (probably print, haven't checked).  I've also seen extra
spaces near dynamic content (with :before and :after) in PP.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load the testcase.
2. Choose File->Print Preview
3. Notice the space between "printed" and "."

Actual Results:  Extra Space

Expected Results:  No Space

What do you mean by "extra spaces"?

The problem is that in PP we reflow/layout with the correct font metrics but
when we display we are not picking up a font that is an exact match to the
printer font. This is a known issue.
