Firefox 2 print and print preview only shows first page
R.Ig
Firefox 2.0.0.1, go to Yahoo mail or Gmail and open an email that is more
than one page long. It can contain just text or text and images, same
problem.
Select Print Preview. Print Preview only shows first page (sometimes first
page extends slightly into page 2). Have seen this documented as a problem,
but no solutions worked for me yet.
Print Preview works fine on web pages that are more than one page long.
Thanks, Roger

Thanks for the suggestion. That printed the whole email and included the
rest of the yahoo mail web page, obviously. At least one gets the entire
email. I appreciate your help. Hopefully Mozilla will fix this soon.

I don't know about soon, but improving print support is on the agenda
for 3.0.

That'll be lovely; to be fair, printing is one area in which Fx/Moz/SM
really lag behind IE.

Brian, you're getting to be a diplomat!
Lags behind, heck Mozilla never got out of the box.
To be fair, there have been many issues far more important then print
support, its a good sign that's finally being addresses seriously.

Well, OK, if you insist. :-P

Standards adoption is often driven by technology, and there has been a
tendency amongst at least some Web designers to see Fx/Moz/SM (rather than
IE or Opera) as the, umm, standard-bearer when it comes to, er, standards.
So I hope improved print support in Fx/SM will also result in improved (CSS)
print support on the Web.

Hey, R.Ig, how about trying this: Just above and to the right of "From",
click on "Printable View". On page then shown, Right click in the text,
click on "Select All", click on "Copy". Go to Word Document, right click,
and click on "Paste". Scroll thru and trim out the top unwanted part.
Under "File", click on "Print Preview". *It showed 7 pages on a long lease
form I had saved under a Word Document.**
Hope it works for you. sdlomi2
