When I go to print a page it only shows half page in portrait view??? All my printer settings are correct. It is only when I use your browser!! It doesn't do this when I switch to the Chrome browser.

This was not the answer to the question that I asked????? I am using version 53 not 47 and it's not how small the font is, it is that the pages are only printing half page on the portrait size???

Do you mean half the page horizontally (right side cut off) or half the page vertically (bottom cut off)?

To shrink a page horizontally, you can use the scaling control on the Print Preview toolbar. Sometimes Shrink to Fit doesn't work and you have to manually set a lower number.

Problems with content running off the bottom of the first page rather than onto a second page can be caused by certain style rules in the page that trigger bugs in how Firefox breaks pages. Depending on the specific problem, there may be a simple workaround, or a complicated workaround, or no workaround.

Can you give a link to the page that doesn't print fully?
