User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a3pre) Gecko/20070324 Minefield/3.0a3pre
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a3pre) Gecko/20070324 Minefield/3.0a3pre

The font sizing in the Print Preview window of Firefox 3.0a3pre is too large and causes the letters to overlap in a not-able-to-read-a-thing way.

When the printout comes, via HP Color LaserJet 2550, the layout is right but the boxes which would contain text are blacked out.  I suspect this is a different bug as colour text (e.g. hyperlinks) can be seen as sized correctly on the black boxes where text should be.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load web page, e.g. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109970
2. Select File Menu -> Print Preview
Actual Results:  
Print Preview is illegible, with characters visibly oversized among the mess.

Expected Results:  
Print Preview is a reasonable representation of the web page to be printed as it would appear from the printer.

Noticed in Nightly Builds from around March 8th until today (25th).
Bug 372838 is for the print preview part.
The printing part I think is bug 370631.
