Package: abiword
Version: 2.4.5-1
Followup-For: Bug #336216

I recently wrote a document in Abiword without quitting and re-opening 
the document before attempting to print.

I selected to print pages 1 and 2 of a 4 page document - in print layout 
view the last 2 lines of page 2 were near the bottom of the page.

When I printed page 2, the bottom 2 lines were missing (with a larger 
than expected blank area at the bottom of page 2).

When I reloaded the document this evening (after several days of not 
running Abiword) the 2 lines that had appeared to be on the bottom of 
page 2 now appeared on the top of page 3 in print layout view. I reduced 
the top and bottom margins so that the 2 lines moved back to the end of 
page 2 and printed page 2 out. The last 2 lines did print out this time.

My guess is that some setting isn't getting from what is viewed to what 
is printed until a save/reload happens.

I quit and restarted Abiword, then created a new document typing in 1 on 
the first line, 2 on the second and so on until the number 50 was on the 
last line in print layout view. I then selected print preview, and only 
the first 49 lines appeared on the first page. I printed the document 
from the icon on the print preview window and the first 49 lines 
appeared on the first printed page, and lines 50 onwards appeared on the 
second printed page. So no lines lost, but print layout view was 
misleading. (The widow / orphan setting of style normal would account 
for the 2 lines missing in the previous case, as as the 2 lines were a 
separate paragraph from the earlier text).

I then quit and restarted Abiword and reloaded the test document. Lines 
1 to 50 appeared on the first page in print layout view, but only lines 
1 to 49 appeared in print preview.

I was using Bitstream Vera Serif at the time, and have done nothing 
fancy with the "normal" style other than adjusting margins.
