The Problem With google docs open in Firefox safe mode (so no extensions) after a fresh reset, with default settings, at 100% zoom, with the font settings having no minimal font size, with the cache cleared, reopened and refreshed multiple times, the spacing of the document is still different on Firefox than it is in both Chrome and Edge.

The page setup is Letter (8.5 / 11) for all 3 browsers using the same margins and the same document with the same settings. Once I attempt to print the google doc in Firefox, the pdf shown has the correct spacing, similar to one shown in both Chrome and Edge. The print and font settings in all 3 browsers are the default.

I'm pretty tech savvy and with a few hours of searching using DuckDuckGo and debugging, this issue hasn't been resolved. You can assume I've tried everything on the 1st page of searching the web for a solution. I cannot share the document as it's a product design document.

Do you know what's going on? This seems to be a problem exclusive to Firefox.

Some Details Windows 10 Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8700 CPU @ 3.20GHz 3.19 GHz Installed RAM 16.0 GB System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Pen and touch No pen or touch input is available for this display Windows and All Drivers Are Up to Date I don't have any viruses. Google Document is 45 pages long. It's a long document but the problem occurs within the 1st 10 pages. The entire document uses the Lora font, which comes with google docs by default. I even tried installing the front directly from google onto my PC and that didn't help.

In case it wasn't super clear. Spacing issues cause a page of text to take up slightly more than a page, and thus take up the top of the next page, which messes with the spacing of the whole document below it.
