If you make a simple test case that doesn't require server data (has the data in the MXML) please file a bug.

IF I keep variableRowHeight set to true, it really doesn't do a good job. It seems to cut off some of the rows that may have a little more text than the rest. If I set it to false, it prints okay but all are the largest size. Any ideas how to fix this?
