Hello,

Has anyone else noticed that Opera cuts off the last line or two from every
page when printing? Every time I print a webpage longer than one printed
page, all I'll see of the last line are the ascenders of the letters.
Furthermore, the lines that are cut off are NOT reprinted on the next page;
for all intents and purposes these lines are deleted. Is there any way to
fix this? Possibly by increasing the bottom margin in print properties?

Any help would be appreciated,

-D. Bron

Are you perchance in the US and did you fail to notice that
Opera defaults to A4 instead of US letter, so it thinks your
paper is a little longer than it really is?

(We non-Americans have had to put up with US apps thinking our
paper is wider than it is for years!)

I checked print properties, and the paper size was set to 8.5 x 11.
However, I think that's just my print driver, not Opera itself. I can't
find an option in Opera to select my paper size, but File>Print Options
allows me to set my margins. Do you (or does anyone else) know what I
should set my margins to if I want to print on 8.5 x 11 paper?

Thanks for any help,
