Rendering the pack to PDF to print it showed the GM filing slug printed on top
of the first line of three of the four sheets — both almanac tables and the
minute's "Copy 3 of 4" line.
The cause is one declaration. .slug is position:absolute at top:6mm, and what
kept sheet content clear of it was .sheet's 18mm screen padding. The print
block then said padding: 0, so in print — and only in print — content started
at the very top and ran under the slug. On screen the pack looked perfect,
which is why it survived being built, checked and shipped.
Fixed by keeping a top padding in print: padding: 11mm 0 0. Side and bottom
margins still come from @page, so nothing else moves.
check-handouts could not see this and is not at fault for it: it holds the
pack's STRUCTURE — the two almanac sheets sharing one class and one set of
columns, every line reading 41 mi, nothing under 11pt — and a collision between
an absolutely positioned element and the flow is a property of the rendering,
not the markup. It took rendering the file and looking at the pages.
The almanac trick itself is unaffected and was verified in the PDF: H03a and
H03b print identically but for their dates and their counts, forty-one against
fifty-three.
