Attached are the print preview screens for both non-inverted and
inverted printouts on my mingw64 bit build using wxWidgets 3.0.2 and my
mingw32 bit build using wxWidgets 3.0.1.  As you can see, the inverted
preview on 3.0.2 is completely blank.  It's almost like the print offset
is shifted off of the page.  I wonder if one of the scaling and/or
offset calculations in wxDC or wxPrintDC was changed and is overflowing.
 I looked as some of the wxWidgets changes between 3.0.1 and 3.0.2 and I
did not see anything obvious.
