Open the print dialog.  One of the selections is "As layed out
on the screen."  Should that be "laid"?
Confirming. Past tense of "lay" is "laid" - not "layed".

Summary: Poor English - should be "laid," not "layed" → [MF]Poor English - should be "laid," not "layed"
Hmm. 'As Laid out on the screen' sounds terrible to me, but it is better than
'As layed out on the screen' which is just plain wrong! I'd prefer something
that does not use our engineering lingo, like 'As it looks on the screen'.

Anyway, sr=attinasi for the spelling correction, provided you ran the table
regression tests and the block and style regression tests twice on all 3
platforms ;)
