Mac Mozilla Firebird cannot "Print Background Colors" and "Print Background Images". Steps: Open Menu File -> Print Result: There is no "Print Background Colors" or "Print Background Images" option. Confirming with Mozilla Firebird 20030515 on MacOS 10.2.5. Mozilla trunk has "Mozilla" dialog in "Print" dialog. And there is PrintPDE.plugin in Mozilla.app/Contents/Plug-Ins/ on Mozilla, but Firebird doesn't have "Mozilla Firebird.app/Contents/Plug-Ins" directory. If I copy Mozilla.app/Contents/Plug-Ins to "Mozilla Firebird.app/Contents", "Mozilla Firebird" dialog becomes to appear in "Print" dialog. Related to Bug 202340 and Bug 188508.

This patch is required for Thunderbird similarly.

Although tried also on Firefox and Thunderbird which were created by AVIARY_1_0_20040515_BRANCH, the background-color-etc.-extended printing property is working.

I can't find that property. Where? Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040611 Firefox/0.8.0+

Over to Build Config.

*** Bug 250403 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Nominating for 1.0. This plugin (a Mac OS X printer-plugin, not a browser plugin) is missing from Firefox and Thunderbird builds, but it present in Seamonkey. This causes a special 'Mozilla' or 'Firefox' tab to appear in the print dialog box, with options to print selections, background colors and frames. It's generic for all gecko apps. It's a super easy checkin, we only have to copy the plugin in the build. In fact, you can also copy the Contents/Plug-ins folder from Mozilla into the Firefox package yourself (when you've opened both applications with 'Show Package Contents'). The plugin even automatically assumes the correct name of the application (Mozilla/Firefox/Mozilla Tunderbird). Don't forget to check it in Thunderbird too.

Thunderbird bug is bug 261216

Bryner, Chase, is this a simple packaging change? Is it worth considering for Firefox 1.0

checked into trunk and branch.

vrfy'd fixed with 2004110711-0.11 on mac os x 10.3.5. able to print selection and frames.

Can the strings in English.lproj/PrintPDE.nib/objects.xib be localized somehow or should I open a new bug about this? The Mac print dialog currently displays in English even on our sv-SE builds.

Print Selection is greyed out for me on 11-07 build.

I just tested today's es-ES localized build. Only the newly-added print options are in English, so it's not really a regression. I think that to address this fully, localizers would need to translate the Localizable.strings file in English.lproj and place it in a <Language>.lproj directory. (I'm not 100% sure about that) At any rate, it's too late to require localizers to translate this file, but I think having this functionality there in English is better than not having it at all. Also, print selection works fine here, just make sure you actually have some text selected.

See bug 268309 for the localization issue.

To elaborate on my earlier post, I realized that if your printer Presets is something other than "Standard", the print selection and the frames options will be greyed out. Reproducible by simply saving a profile.
