Print preview is gone on my Thunderbird, how do I get it back?

In Thunderbird, there used to be a print preview option when I pulled down the File menu. Now only print option in that menu. I've looked through every other menu and can't find a print preview option. I use print preview most of the time before printing. So how do I get it back? Thanks!

Make sure you have the message you want to preview highlighted (or open) - it still works on my T'bird (latest version).

Hi - that works except for Drafts, which is what I usually want to print.

I am using a testing daily build of version 30. It has a print preview, even on the drafts folder.

Perhaps try restarting with add-ons disabled from the help menu and see if that helps. I must also ask the obvious... you do have a printer installed don't you?
