Sometimes Mozilla prints out top half of a text line on one page, and bottom
half on the next page.

Need a lot more information:
1) type of printer
2) URL
3) etc.

1) I've seen the bug physically printed on Stylus 740i
I also see the bug when I print to .ps file

Probably the bug is related to printing the selection only. I could not
reproduce it printing the whole page.

2) URL is provided. You can take a look at printed result:
http://anduin.net/~relf/gnu.ps.gz
It's quite weak illustration since most part of the line is located on the
second page, and the line is readable. But I have another example (with russian
text) where the line is divided into two equal halves, and the line is unreadable.

Yes, this could be related to selection, in fact, it is a known issue that
printing selection of more than one page could cut a line in two.

I am mostly worried about when not printing selection and it gets cur in two.

When printing a selection text lines are sometimes split bewtween pages.
Selecting and rpinting the text in the main frame on the following page splits
the line at the bottom of page 1:

The severity field for this bug is relatively low, S4. However, the bug has 4 duplicates.
:jwatt, could you consider increasing the bug severity?

The last needinfo from me was triggered in error by recent activity on the bug. I'm clearing the needinfo since this is a very old bug and I don't know if it's still relevant.
