User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en; rv:1.8.1.19) Gecko/20081212 Camino/1.6.6 (like Firefox/2.0.0.19)

When seeking to save contents of website at the above URL,printing to PDF only retrieved 2 of 18 pages, and the content of those two pages was incomplete. The same exercise executed with Safari resulted in complete and accurate translation of content from website. NOTE: I DO NOT USUALLY HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH CAMINO - perhaps it is a site specific issue?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to URL <http://ginews.blogspot.com/>
2. Go: File/Print & click
3. In Printing pop-up click PDF button (bottom left)
4. In resulting drop-down click "Save as PDF"
5. Select location to print to (e.g. Desktop)
6. Click Save.

NOTE: Same outcome resulted from going File/Print/Adobe Acrobat
Actual Results:  
Two pages only printed (saved) to Desktop; contents incomplete

Expected Results:  
Complete document (18 pages) with all content correctly displayed.

Same exercise with Safari gave expected result

This will almost certainly be one of the core printing bugs (position absolute or long tables)

Code for the offending block:
<div id="main" class="main section">

#main {
float:left;
line-height:1.5em;
margin:20px 0 0;
overflow:hidden; /* <-- this cause the column to be clipped after one page */
padding:0 0 0 1em;
width:510px;
word-wrap:break-word;
}
