Can anyone forward the question to KDE developers ? It is definitly a bug, and it is easily reprodusable. Maybe KDE libs (maybe KHTML, as far as the problem arises with konqueror and kmail - that is, apps that have data represented in KHTML) manually send duplicate data to QPrinter, before and after calls to QPrinter::newPage(). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
