User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:92.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/92.0

Steps to reproduce:

Print page from NYT, scaled to 108%.
https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1022564-singapore-noodles-with-charred-scallions
Firefox version 92.0.1, 64 bit, Windows 10.

Actual results:

Last line of text is missing.
This problem goes away if I use a different scaling.

Expected results:

Complete text should have printed on the page, or flowed onto the next page.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Printing: Output' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

Thanks for reporting this!

When I try to print that website (using their print button or control+P), I get a blank page with is a bit concerning. I get something when I switch to simplified view, but that doesn't look like what your PDF is.

What option are you using to print to PDF? Is it the builtin Firefox option, or different one?

Flags: needinfo?(winslowcotton)

The options are:

  • Adobe PDF driver, installed with Acrobat Pro DC (2015). See attached image.
  • All other options, other than the 108% scaling are the Firefox defaults.

Also note that I deleted a sentence t the bottom of the introductory paragraph (using Inspect): "To get vegetarian recipes like this one...". This will affect where the page break happens. That might be why you don't see it.

A fix for a very similar issue landed with bug 1732836, can you test this with up to date Firefox Nightly to see if the problem still occurs?

It's definitely not fixed in 93.0 64-bit.
If you step through the zoom percentages above 108%, you can see various examples of the page bottom being truncated, and the right margin also starts to become clipped at 109%.

The potential fix is currently only in the nightly channel. The current nightly is 95, can you test with a nightly build? You can find the downloads here: https://nightly.mozilla.org/

In Nightly 95.0a1 (2021-10-19) (64-bit), the problem appears to be fixed!

I'm glad to hear it!
