Any element with the "opacity" css3 property set to a (legal) value lower than
1.0 renders properly on screen but is invisible on print or print preview.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
<span style="opacity:0.5">print me !</span>
Actual Results:  
Invisible item when printing.

Expected Results:  
Same rendering as on screen.
Adding testcase to URL field.

On Linux, this may be due to Postscript not handling transparency, but why does
it break on Windows?
I see the text printed using the testcase.  It is not transparent but it did
print. LInux 20041005006

Yes, this still happens, a user of our system just reported it as a bug. I am
working around by using

@media "screen"
{
}

for the opacity rule.

Duping to a later bug with a bit more info
