Title:
  "print selection only" option cuts multi-page text

Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser:
  Confirmed
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I tried selecting some text from a webpage that I wanted to print.
  The text was several pages long.  When I printed it, I noticed that
  the last line of the text was cut horizontally, and the bottom part
  was on the next page, thus making that line very difficult to read.

  I checked with just printing to a file (both postscript and pdf), and
  the same thing happens, and at the same proportions (the same amount
  of the line is cut off, and pushed to the next page)

  Obviously, I think the line of text shouldn't be cut at all.  It
  should be either squeezed into the current page (The "Ignore scaling
  and shrink page to fit width" option is selected, so maybe that could
  justify this?) or, just push the line to the next page.
