Go to above URL and print the page. Print output only goes up to the line "Rounded, wounded, grieve and sieve", the rest of the poem is missing. The text below the poem, which is out of the box, appears again.
I check with Chrome, it prints everything.

If this is relevant, my default font is Cambria 26 pt.

Reproducible: Always

As the original URL states, the page is moved to

Sorry. U R correct and it still breaks the page at the PRE tag. I wonder if the PRE tag is causing the page break and truncation problems. The print CSS file re-defines PRE as

pre {
    border: 1pt dashed black;
    white-space: pre;
    font-size: 8pt;
    overflow: auto;  <<==== this line does not exist in screen CSS def for pre
    padding: 1em 0;
	background : white;
	color : black;
}

Didn't I read about overflow:auto causing problems on one of the other bug reports? I'd dig it out now but it's been a long day and I have to get up at 6:00 AM to get Michael off to school (and it's 12:30 AM now). ciao
