I have a work-around for this printing issue. It was interesting and problematic enough to be worth writing up in case others can benefit, I think.
The fix: The print no longer drops lines because I added a #footer (display: none;) to print.css. I no longer get the copyright at the bottom of the printed page, but now the rest of the text prints properly. Other things I tried, including suppressing the printing of the second column, did not work. It did not work to simply move the clear instructions to a screen-only css. In fact, I tried a ton of different approaches until I tried this one. The problem: In a relative & static positioned (not much absolute), layout with a header, footer, and two-columns, FireFox was printing the footer before the end of the page (likely after the end of the shorter column) and was dropping lines of text from the document. For the curious, you can see the problem if you are using a css online editor and you remove the display:none in the #footer in print.css on www.tincat-group.com/mewsings. It will then exhibit the original problem that took me way to long to figure out. If anyone does know how I can get the footer to also print at the end in FireFox, I sure would be interested.
