What makes this so hard? Why can’t browsers just treat the page size as a viewport? Is the problem dealing with page breaks?

- andreareina 8y agoIt's simply not part of the problem that browsers exist to solve, so probably not worth spending the engineer-hours to get exactly right. Printing in general is, but they just need to get things onto the page in some approximation of what the page looks like; millimeter-perfect accuracy isn't needed.
