this and another of mozilla's pages don't layout correctly in Print Preview and
Adobe Reader 5.0 . The right side of the pages are trimmed off and the graphic
for  the red lizrd is jumbled.
 
  On the othe page www.mozilla.org/quality/smoketests/faq.html  the mozilla
header   gets its very own page in Preview Print and Adobe.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to pages
2.Press Print and Preview/save as PDF 
3.

Actual Results:  
same same.  This happened with Mozilla 1.5, and Firebird 0.6.1 which i just got
Probably web page though I've had problems with documents in Prview Print
application before.

Expected Results:  
Given me a whole Dinosaur and an unused sheet of paper

none  only these pages so far
-> browser
worksforme Win2k Mozilla 1.5. can anyone confirm this?

 As the pages are being redone this is probably unimportant, though it seems it
might be a mac problem.    - The "/why/users.html" looks better but still
condenses the page too much horizontally cutting a bit off. 
  
   The new 'quality/smoketests/faq.html' page looks just fine in print Preview.
So that is 'no more problem'.
Since Print Preview is not implented for OS X (Moz use the system provied one),
this really is a printing problem.

See bug 205974.
I can choose printing of a background color etc. now with this patch.
Built-in Preview cannot be called in the newest build.
