I do my banking online. the page that comes up would be more than a sigle printed page. When I try to print that out (PDF Creator) from Palemoon, only the first page is printed.
This does not happen in IE or Chromium.
I have experimented with all the print settings to no avail. No this does not happen in all webpages.
I have even saved the webpage to file and simplified it, no joy.
Thank you.

Re: printing multiple pages
Modern websites do not tend to directly print very well unless they offer a specific "printer friendly" option.
For this purpose I use Fireshot, myself, which might work better for what you're trying to do.

Re: printing multiple pages
I normally use Simple Screenshot to save the page as an image.
However, there is a way of persuading most pages to save as a PDF / to print, but only if you don't mind spending time on it and loosing the original formatting in the process. So for most purposes, and most people, it's just not worth it. For the other 0.1%:
I sometimes find this worthwhile when it's a page I want to mark up (using Simple Marker) and save; it can be quicker than the alternative of editing a jpg.

- use Web Developer's Toolkit to disable the CSS on the page; this normally allows the page the print, but at this stage it may look terrible
- tidy the page with Zap Anything until it looks acceptable
- maybe resize images with Bizzare

Re: printing multiple pages
I don't know whether the option is helpful, but you may try the following:
Open about:config in the address bar.
Look for this parameter: print.use_simplify_page
Change the value from false (this is the default value) to true.
Restart Pale Moon and try printing your page.
I don't know whether this parameter can be set up in the gui of printing (i did not find it).

Re: printing multiple pages
AFAICT, this is available only if you print by going through print preview first, and that the page is an "article". It uses reader mode functionality to change and simplify the page's layout. See bug #962433 for more information.
