You cannot do anything with the preview other than walk through the pages. You
should realize that this is not coming from us, it's part of the system
frameworks, therefore we can also not change how it works. AFAIK it should be
accurate as to what you get, but that can never be 100%, because the
information it has may also not be 100% (a physical object is not always the
same thing as the model in the computer, for instance you may not have the
paper size in your tray you say there is.) From what you say I really cannot
say what would cause the truncation, it could be all kinds of things. You
should try and play with the various settings in the print panel.
