** Description changed:

- some web pages (example: show attachment) cannot be printed using
- programs like firefox2, firefox3, epiphany-browser, open-office-writer
- in ubuntu because the only the first page is rendered and the document
- is cropped thereafter.
+ Some websites using particular layout techniques do not print or print-
+ preview correctly in gecko-based browsers (firefox, epiphany, etc),
+ causing an incomplete print if the site cannot fit on a single page.
  
- all of the programs can display the page but are unable to generate a
- printing version. i.e. printing on hardware printers, printing to
- software printers, displaying print previews and switching to print
- layout (open office only) shows only the first page.
+ Typically, a header is printed on one page, and a single page of content
+ on a second page, and nothing further.
  
- speculation: this is because certain html-entities (special tables?!?)
- are believed to be non-breakable where in fact they should be split onto
- two pages.
+ The technique in question is the use of css's "overflow: none" + inline-
+ frames (iframe).
