We can create custom page headers on each pages by the following code: <div class="DivPrintingHeader"> center<br />center<br />center<br /> </div> ...and following style: <style media="print"> body { font-size: 80%; } #DivPrintingHeader { display: block; position: fixed; top: 0px; left: 0px; .width: 100%; } </style> in this case, body { font-size: 80%; } has effect only to custom header of first page and on the other pages custom headers have 100% font-size Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open page with necessary HTML code 2. File -> Print Preview 3. Compare font-size of content inside div on first and other pages Actual Results: font-size of content inside div on first and other pages is different Expected Results: font-size of content inside div on first and other pages have to be the same

Attached file reduced testcase 1 —
Here's a reduced testcase with 'font-style: italic' on the text, too, to show that it's not just sizing that's affected. (In my trunk nightly, the fixed-position div is only small & italic on the first page -- it is not italic & has a larger (default) size on each subsequent page)
This is broken at least as far back as Firefox 3.5 (using my reduced testcase), so this isn't a recent regression.
Here's a second reduced testcase, with the inherited style on a <div> instead of <body>. This shows that it's just a general problem with inheritance, and isn't <body>-specific. (FWIW, I tried putting the style on the <html> element, too, with the same results.)
Summary: body style doesn't affect content in "position:fixed" div beyond the first page → inherited style doesn't affect content in "position:fixed" div beyond the first page

The problem is that the nsCSSFrameConstructor::ReplicateFixedFrames hack passes the canvas frame as the parent frame for the things its replicating. And we use the parent frame to determine the parent style context. Is there a reason not to inline ConstructFrame into ReplicateFixedFrames, then change the parent frame passed to AddFrameConstructionItems to be the parent frame of the placeholder of the original fixed-pos element, which is what we need to be using for style resolution?
