Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. load a page with flash on it 2. hit print preview Actual Results: you can't see the flash elements on the preview Expected Results: shown the flash elements correctly on the preview
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040803 Firefox/0.9.3 Confirmed on Windows XP and I added an example URL (http://www.internetnews.com/infra/print.php/3403161). Flash content DOES appear in the final printout, but NOT in the preview. Also, it appears as though the ENTIRE Flash file is downloaded to the printer, not just the "header" page. This constitutes *very* large files being sent to the printer (30MBs).
Seamonkey's equivalent is bug 134002.
