worksforme with linux trunk 2005052609 and 2005051801

does this happen on every page or all of them?  Can you try a clean profile
(mozilla -ProfileManager)

KB, if you happen to have a copy of the entries that you removed from your
profile to fix this, I'd like to see them.

I notice you refer to the paper size as "DIN A4". The mozilla ps module just
calls it "A4". If you actually saw "DIN A4" in the paper size selector, that may
be the problem right there.
