i read on google it has something to do with CSS and frames but as i am not an experienced programmer i have no idea how to change how firefox copes with these

whilst trying to print a multi-page document from the web (such as guitar tabs or emails) only the first page shows in the print preview and this is what prints (obviously)

the troubleshooting guide says to save it as a different file type then print but if you want to keep the formatting then...

and also, it's a bit of a faf if you have to do it every time you want to print something

any responses appreciated. thanks in advance.

I have the same issue on certain web sites for printing. I just highlight on the page what I really want to print, copy it, paste it into a Word document, edit it some more, then print it. Once its in the Word document I can just about get it to any format I need to reduce its size and number of pages.

Select all -> Print -> Options -> [check] Print Selection Only -> Print is a work around that did it for me once so far.

Please fix this Firefox printing! It is impossible to change the millions of web sites to make sites "Firefox printing bug" compatible.

Where is the Firefox source code? Is there a git repository?

There are no announcements nowhere that you cannot print in Firefox. At least put a big sign on the Mozilla front page that Firefox does not support printing.

There are a number of Bugs filed about problems with printing less than the full web page, a few of those Bugs are over 8 years old. I can only guess that none of the Mozilla developers are capable of fixing those Bugs.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113217
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154892 > https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=279359 - these Bugs are sometimes so old that the testcases go off-line and they get marked as Resolved Incomplete
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129941 - fixed in Firefox 4
