Hi!
I compared the printed results of two of my pages. One is a very old page,
"styled" almost without any CSS. The other one is a modern page, styled
completely in CSS and styled for printing, i.e. positions in cm, sizes in
pt.
Apparently IE (in this case only IE is used for viewing/printing) makes sure
not to print half lines, if a line doesn't fit on page 1 it is taken to page
2. But only for the old page.
On the new page there are half lines, page 1 is cut off in the middle of the
letters and printed on page 2.
I tried to find out, where is the difference. On both pages there is a table
with space between the table lines. This space is different from the line
height.
So I took the old page and connected some of the table lines to check
whether the printing area is a multiple of the line height by coincidence.
Still the IE took care that there are no half lines. But when I moved the
table on the old page a few millimeters using CSS, I get half lines there,
too.
Any ideas? Is there some kind of "dynamic page margin" that is disabled when
using CSS-positioning?
