Bug#399690: kdeprint's html printing overwrites document text with document header



Package: kdeprint
Version: 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-2
Severity: normal

When printing a HTML document (from konqueror f.ex.), one can choose the
"Print header" option in the "HTML Settings" tab (it's on by default btw.).
If this is enabled, then kprint will *overwrite* the top of the page with
the header of the page.

This is less of a problem when printing single pages - you can see the
result of printing [1] into a PDF and displaying it in xpdf in the first
attached screenshot - notice that the logo is cut off at the top by the page
header.

But it becomes a bigger problem if there's little space on the sheet and
kdeprint pushes the text up towards the border of the sheet as seen in
the second screen shot where text is actually lost and the printed
document becomes unusable. This can be seen in the second attached
screenshot. It's the same document but printed through the Pamphlet filter
that puts multiple pages on one sheet.

Whether output goes to PDF or directly to the printer doesn't matter
here.
