If the cell of a table, containing an image, is split across a page break then
the image get distored, ie the image squashed into the both parts of the cell
before and after the page break.

I would expect this to cut the image into two or move the cell to the second page.

(testcast and resultant ps to follow)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open testcase
2.Print

comment #3 talks ablout images in last column, though these are cliped
and never printed i guess this is a seperate bug, i was refering to
distortion of images on about the 4 row of my printout.

Intresting to note the image is correctly split on the print prewiew.
I'll attach an printout example showing the fault.


Also i like to Confirmed that the error i'm trying to show is not
present on WIN32 Build ID 2002020406
I'm having problems attaching the examples so hear as some links to them, if the
of any use could you attach them.

WFM on Linux with mozilla 1.0 rc3
Bug confirmed for Mozilla 1.1 on Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
Works fine (images get split) for Mozilla 1.2a on Windows XP.

With papersize A4, the page break is in the 5th row, which
might explain comment #6.
I have found that this happens under Linux using png images any time that an
image is printed across a page boundry.
Rats!  I noticed this problem, searched though Bugzilla to find a
relevant bug report, realized my symptom was slightly different (no
table cell involved), thought I had useful information to contribute,
then got to smartin's report from two days ago.  So all I can says is
a useless "ditto": a PNG image which fell across a page boundary was
displayed twice, once squeezed to fit in the remaining space on page
one, then normally on page two.

I've added a vote to this bug.  Based purely on the symptoms, there
might be some connection with this other report I found in my search:
Bug# 125276 ("Printing causes squished images on second page;
replicates images on first page")

Is anyone working on this? This problem has been around
forever. I've attached a PDF showing the problem that
I'm seeing.

The PDF only contains page 3 and 4 since the full document
is 303K and thus over the 300K limit for bugzilla attachments.
Probably a dupe of bug 119263.
Isn't this a dupe of Bug 130568 ?
Is this bug still an issue in the recent nightlies?
I can't reproduce this problem. With both the test case and the URL from comment
16, images split over two pages are not distorted. This was probably fixed by
the checkins for bug 80190 or bug 225243.
